Peptide agonist for sst2 and sst5 somatostatin receptors. IC50/Kd values (nM) at cloned human somatostatin receptors are: > 1000 (sst1), 0.2 - 1.5 (sst2), 27 - 36 (sst3), > 127 (sst4), and 0.06 - 23 (sst5).

Grandifloroside shows good antioxidative and potent anti-inflammatory activities, it also exhibits potent inhibitory activity against TNF-α and 5α-reductase, suggests that it might be developed as a source of potent anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory agents and therapeutic agent for benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH).

4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Galactopyranoside (4MU-α-Gal) (4-MU-α-Gal) is a fluorogenic substrate of α-galactosidase.
