Pteroside B is primarily studied for its potential anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. It has shown activity in modulating pathways associated with oxidative stress, making it a candidate of interest in research related to neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson’s disease. The compound may help reduce neuronal damage by inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and suppressing reactive oxygen species (ROS) in brain cells.

In addition, Pteroside B exhibits mild antioxidant effects that could support cellular health under stress conditions. It is also being explored for its role in enhancing cognitive function in preclinical models, possibly through the regulation of signaling molecules involved in memory and learning.

Due to its natural origin and observed bioactivity, Pteroside B serves as a lead compound in the development of herbal-based therapeutics, particularly in traditional medicine systems where the source plant is used for treating nervous system disorders. However, clinical applications remain under investigation, and most evidence is currently limited to in vitro and animal studies.
