Researchers have discovered two new compounds, along with five known compounds, in the dried leaves of Ohwia caudata. These compounds have been evaluated for their neuroprotective effect against lipopolysaccharide-induced BV2 microglia cells and have been shown to exhibit anti-neuroinflammatory activity. The structures of the new compounds were established through the use of 1D-NMR, 2D-NMR, and HR-ESI-MS spectral analysis. The previous studies conducted on O. caudata suggested that it may be capable of protecting against Alzheimer's disease.
