Researchers discovered two new compounds, mimengosides H and I, in the fruits of Buddleja lindleyana Fort using various analytical techniques. They then tested the neuroprotective capabilities of these compounds against neurotoxicity induced by 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion in PC12 cells. Pre-treatment with mimengoside H showed a potential protective effect in concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 1 μmol l⁻¹. These findings suggest that mimengoside H could be explored further as a neuroprotective agent with potential health benefits.
