Bioassay-guided separation of citreorosein and other oestrogenic compounds from Polygonum cuspidatum

Phytother Res. 2009 May;23(5):740-1. doi: 10.1002/ptr.2619.

Abstract

Citreorosein was isolated from P. cuspidatum as a new oestrogenic compound, together with emodin and its glucoside, by silica gel column chromatography and preparative high-performance liquid chromatography sequentially. Oestrogenic activity was determined by a recombinant yeast assay.
