Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26604665

Ginkgolide C (GC, BN52022), is a terpene lactone constituent of Ginkgo biloba, the ginkgo tree, is the oldest living tree, with a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine. Ginkgolide C is 25-fold less potent than ginkgolide B as a platelet activating factor receptor antagonist, due to the presence of the 7beta-OH. Ginkgolide C may not be bioavailable at clinically relevant concentrations due to rapid metabolism.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: Ginkgolide C is CNS active in animals. No human data available.
