Dendrobium plicatile is an Asian orchid species, a member of the genus Dendobium . It was formerly described as Flickingeria fimbriata.
Distribution The orchid 's native regions include Southeast Asia , the Himalayas , and Malesia .
It is found in Borneo , Cambodia , South and Central China , Hainan , Himalayas East, India ( Assam), Java , Laos , Nusa Tenggara islands , Malaya , Nepal , Nicobar Islands , Philippines , Sulawesi , Sumatera , Thailand , and Vietnam .
Description The methanol extract of D. plicatile has been shown to scavenge the superoxide anion radical ·O2 − . [ 2] Flower extracts from the closely related species Dendrobium officinale have also been proven to reduce fatty liver disease, oxidative stress, and inflammation, protecting against alcohol-induced liver injury. [ 3]
From the stems, three phenanthrenes can be isolated, named plicatol A , B and C . [ 4]
The plant also contains the norditerpenoids named flickinflimilins A and B and steroids. [ 5]
