Ginkgolide B inhibits the neurotoxicity of prions or amyloid-β1-42
Background Neuronal loss in Alzheimer's or prion diseases is preceded by the accumulation of fibrillar aggregates of toxic proteins (amyloid-β1-42 or the prion protein).

Photochemical Approaches to Complex Chemotypes: Applications in Natural Product Synthesis. [PDF]
The use of photochemical transformations is a powerful strategy that allows for the formation of a high degree of molecular complexity from relatively simple building blocks in a single step. A central feature of all light-promoted transformations is the

Transformation of multi-component ginkgolide into ginkgolide B by Coprinus comatus [PDF]
As the strongest antagonist of the platelet activating factor, ginkgolide B (GB) possesses anti-ischemic, anti-oxidant and anti-convulsant properties, and it is used for the treatment of thrombosis in clinical practice. Till now, GB is usually obtained from extraction of Ginkgo biloba leaves through column chromatography with an extremely low yield and

Conformational variability of the glycine receptor M2 domain in response to activation by different agonists [PDF]
Models describing the structural changes mediating cys-loop receptor activation generally give little attention to the possibility that different agonists may promote activation via distinct M2 pore-lining domain structural rearrangements.
