Microbial transformation of icariin and its derivatives
Microbial transformation is an important tool to perform selective conversion of compounds to derivatives which are difficult to produce synthetically. In order to obtain icariside II and icaritin, the active components in Herba Epimedii in vivo, biotransformation studies using microbes as biocatalysts were carried out. Icariside II (2) and icaritin (3)

The protective effect of icariin and phosphorylated icariin against LPS-induced intestinal goblet cell dysfunction [PDF]
In this study, we used LS174T cells as a model to investigate the protective effects of icariin and phosphorylated icariin on LPS-induced goblet cell dysfunction. Our results indicated that icariin and phosphorylated icariin increased the cell viability and decreased lactate dehydrogenase activity in LPS-treated LS174T cells.
