Gintonin is a glycolipoprotein fraction isolated from Panax ginseng.

In animal cell cultures, gintonin induces [Ca2+] transients via activation of the said receptor.

[4] One Korean study claims that gintonin is orally active in rodents and shows anti-Alzheimer's disease effects through LPA receptor-mediated non-amyloidogenic pathways.

[5][6] Oral gintonin is well-tolerated by human AD patients in a small study, but the benefits are unclear.

[7] A number of other effects are attributed to oral administration of gintonin-enriched extract in rodents.
