Aucubin is found in common verbena. Aucubin is a monoterpenoid based compound. Aucubin, like all iridoids, has a cyclopentan-[C]-pyran skeleton. Aucubin is found in the leaves of Aucuba japonica (Cornaceae), Eucommia ulmoides (Eucommiaceae), and Plantago asiatic (Plantaginaceae), etc, plants used in traditional Chinese and folk medicine. Aucubin was found to protect against liver damage induced by carbon tetrachloride or alpha-amanitin in mice and rats when 80 mg/kg was dosed intraperitoneally. Aucubin has been shown to exhibit anti-proliferative and apoptotic functions. Aucubin has shown effectiveness as antifungal and suggests its promising potential use as solution for C. albicans biofilm-related infections. Aucubin has a range of biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-algesic as well as anti-tumor activities.
