2,5‐Dihydroxy‐4,3′‐di( β ‐ d ‐glucopyranosyloxy)‐ trans ‐stilbene was identified from Morus bombycis Koidzumi roots. The 2,5‐dihydroxy‐4,3′‐di( β ‐ d ‐glucopyranosyloxy)‐ trans ‐stilbene at a dose of 400–600 mg/kg had hepatoprotective activity comparable to the standard agent, silymarin. The biochemical assays were confirmed by histological observations showing that the 2,5‐dihydroxy‐4,3′‐di( β ‐ d ‐glucopyranosyloxy)‐ trans ‐stilbene from Morus bombycis Koidzumi roots decreased cell ballooning in response to CCl 4 treatment. These results demonstrate that the 2,5‐dihydroxy‐4,3′‐di( β ‐ d ‐glucopyranosyloxy)‐ trans ‐stilbene component has a liver protective action against CCl 4 ‐induced hepatotoxicity.
