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

Ginkgolide A (GA, BN52020), 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 A is an effective antagonist of platelet activating factor, an ubiquitous phospholipid that acts as a mediator of numerous pathophysiological conditions. Ginkgolide A displays anxiolytic, antiinflammatory properties, protects from cerebral ischemia in animal models.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: Ginkgolide A is CNS active in animals, however it was reported that the compound poorly crosses the blood-brain barrier. No human data available.

Sample Use Guides

Daily administration of ginkgolide-A in mice (1 or 2 mg/kg, po) resulted in an anxiolytic-like effect by the third treatment, with the maximal effect observed after the fifth administration. Ginkgolide A (GA, BN52020) (ED50 = 1.1 mg/kg i.v.) inhibit bronchospasms, hypotension and concomitant generation of TXA2-like activity induced by PAF-acether in anaesthetized guinea-pigs. Combined pre- and post-treatment with the Ginkgolide A (2 x 25 mg/kg, s.c.) significantly reduced the resulting neuronal damage of the CA1 and CA3 hippocampal subfields and of the occipital and parietal cerebral cortex in rat.
Route of Administration: Other
The endothelial production of high-glucose-induced interleukin (IL)-4, IL-6, IL-13 and signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT-3) phosphorylation were significantly inhibited by the pretreatment with Ginkgolide A at concentrations of 10, 15 and 20μM
