1. Schisandrol B (Besigomsin) may exert neuroprotective effects by attenuating the microglia-mediated neuroinflammatory response via inhibiting the TLR4-mediated NF-κB and MAPKs signaling pathways. 2. Schisandrol B has anti-inflammatory property, potentially result from the inhibition of COX-2, iNOS, IL-6, TNF-α and NO through the down-regulation of RIP2 and NF-κB activation. 3. Schisandrol B induces marked protective effects against hepatic and renal injury induced by CCl(4) exposure through differential regulation of the MAPK signal transduction pathway. 4. Schisandrol B significantly inhibits cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner, due to cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase with the downregulation of cyclin D1 expression and Retinoblastoma (RB) phosphorylation.
Schisantherin E is a natural lignan isolated from Schisandra chinensis. Schisandra chinensis has antioxidant, hepatoprotective, sedative, anticancer, anti-SARS and anti-inflammatory activities.
β-Chamigrenal has anti-inflammatory activity, it has inhibitory effects on lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide and prostaglandin E2 production in RAW 264.7 macrophages. Chamigrenal shows platelet-activating factor antagonistic activity and the IC(50)
Tigloylgomisin H represents a potential liver cancer prevention agent, it can significantly induce quinone reductase (QR) activity in Hepa1c1c7 mouse hepatocarcinoma cells, it functions as a novel monofunctional inducer that specifically upregulates phase
1. Schisanhenol (Schizanhenol) can protect against adriamycin induced heart mitochondrial toxicity. 2. Schisanhenol has antioxidative effect on human LDL oxidation, may be through scavenging free radicals. 3. Schisanhenol has anti-apoptosis effect on BACSs, may be related to its inhibition of ROS generation.
Gomisin O (5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-1,2,3,13-tetramethoxy-6,7-dimethylbenzo[3,4]cycloocta[1,2-f][1,3]benzodioxol-5-ol) is a natural product from Schizandra chinensis.
Gomisin N, isolated from Schisandra chinensis, exhibits sedative and hypnotic bioactivity. It has potential applications in allergy treatment and inhibits proliferation while inducing apoptosis in cancer cells.
Gomisin J is a natural product and have vasodilatory activity. Gomisin J suppresses lipid accumulation by regulating the expression of lipogenic and lipolytic enzymes and inflammatory molecules through activation of AMPK, LKB1 and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II and inhibition of fetuin-A in HepG2 cells.
Citraconic acid anhydride (3-methyl-2,5-dihydrofuran-2,5-dione) is a cyclic acid anhydride compound used as an important dienophile or acylating agent in organic synthesis.
Tigloylgomisin P (Tiglogomisin P) is a lignan that can be extracted from the fruits of Schisandra chinensis, with anti-HIV and anticancer activities, useful in lung cancer research.
Lancifodilactone F exerts minimal cytotoxicity against C8166 cells (CC50 > 200 microg/mL) and shows anti-HIV activity with EC50 = 20.69 +/- 3.31 microg/mL and a selectivity index > 6.62.
