Populus tomentosa Carr. a Chinese folk medicine, has been used for treatment of arthritic disease. A new flavonoid(1), with molecular formula C30H26O12 was isolated from this plant along with four known compounds. They were identified as apigenin-7-O-(6"-O-p-coumaroyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (I), salicin (II), tremulodin (III), tremulacin (IV) and daucosterol (V) by the use of 1HNMR, 13CNMR and 1H-13C COSY spectroscopy.

D005960	Glucosides	A GLYCOSIDE that is derived from GLUCOSE.	Glucoside
D000894	Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal	Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.
