Boldine is an alkaloid of the aporphine class that can be found in the boldo tree[1] and in Lindera aggregata.[2]

Boldine has antioxidant activity that effectively protects against free radical induced lipid peroxidation or enzyme inactivation. In addition, it has alpha-adrenergic antagonist activities in vascular tissue, and it has also been reported to have hepatoprotective, cytoprotective, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects.[3]
