Description
(extracted from source data)
DESCRIPTION (-)-Epicatechin is a natural bitter-tasting compound that is present in plants such as Visnea mocanera and Litsea rotundifolia.
Preliminary evidence suggests that it behaves as a β-arrestin-biased agonist at the apelin receptor, with no effect on forskolin-stimulated cAMP production . (GtoPdb)
