Methylophiopogonanone B, homoisoflavonoid, is extracted from the root of Ophiopogon japonicas, shows high antioxidant ability[1]. Methylophiopogonanone B increases GTP-Rho and acts via the Rho signaling pathway, inducing cell morphological change via actin cytoskeletal reorganization, including dendrite retraction and stress fiber formation[2].
