Salidroside (rhodioloside) is a glucoside of tyrosol found in the plant Rhodiola rosea. [1] It has been studied, along with rosavin, as one of the potential compounds responsible for the putative antidepressant and anxiolytic actions of this plant.
R. rosea is an important medicinal plant commonly used throughout Europe, Asia, and North America, that has been recognized as a botanical adaptogen by the European Medicines Agency. [1] Rosavin production is specific to R. rosea and R. sachalinenis, [2] and the biosynthesis of these glycosides occurs spontaneously in Rhodiola roots and ...
Rhodiola is a genus of perennial plants in the family Crassulaceae [1] that resemble Sedum and other members of the family. Like sedums, Rhodiola species are often called stonecrops. Some authors merge Rhodiola into Sedum. [2] [3] Rhodiola species grow in high-altitude and other cold regions of the Northern Hemisphere. [4]
