Hormonal activity
Prolactin secretion from the anterior pituitary is inhibited by dopamine and stimulated by thyroxin-releas-ing hormone (TRH) released from the hypothalamus. Chaste tree and a synthetic dopamine agonist (lisuride) significantly inhibited basal and TRH-stimu-lated prolactin secretion in isolated rat pituitary cells. | | Terpene lactones (terpenoids), including bilobalide and ginkgolides A, B, C, J.5

The majority of the pharmacological studies and clinical trials have been conducted using a special concentrated standardized extract which is chemically complex, containing at least 26 identified components and standardized to contain 24% flavonoid glycosides (Ginkgo flavone glycosides) and 6% terpenoids (ginkgolides and bilobalide). | Committee on Diet, Nutrition, and Cancer, Assembly of Life Sciences National Research Council See book keywords and concepts | Chapter 15).
The committee believes that there is sufficient epidemiological evidence to suggest that consumption of certain vegetables, especially carotene-rich (i.e., dark green and deep yellow) vegetables and cruciferous vegetables (e.g., cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, and brussels sprouts), is associated with a reduction in the incidence of cancer at several sites in humans. A number of nonnutritive and nutritive compounds that are present in these vegetables also inhibit carcinogenesis in laboratory animals. |
