Triptolide (PG490) belongs to the tricyclic diterpenoid group of natural products and is an inhibitor of NF-κB activation. Triptolide exhibits immunosuppressive, anti-rheumatic, anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative and anti-tumor activities.
Tripterin (Celastrol) is a natural product, a proteasome inhibitor that inhibits the pancreatic rennet-like activity of the 20S proteasome (IC50=2.5 μM). Tripterin has anti-inflammatory, anti-infectious, and immunomodulatory properties.
1. Triptonide (PG 492) is effective in the treatment of autoimmune diseases and has potent antileukemic and antitumor activities. 2. Triptonide possesses anti-inflammatory activity, upregulate the expression of IL-37, and this expression was suppressed by ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK inhibitors.
Demethylzeylasteral (T-96), isolated from Tripterygium wilfordii, has anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive and anti-tumor activities. It inhibits the invasion of triple-negative breast cancer by blocking the TGF-β signaling pathway, and it can significantly reduce atherosclerosis.
Gallocatechin gallate is a flavonoid compound isolated from South American snake plant, with antiviral activity by inhibiting the entry and release stages of pseudorabies virus replication.
1. Pristimerin (Celastrol methyl ester) has anticancer activity , treatment with Pristimerin may be a potential strategy for the suppression of hypoxia-induced metastasis through the reversal of hypoxia-induced stem cell characteristics and EMT in cancer cells. 2. Pristimerin down-regulates the expression of pro-inflammatory mediators through blocking of NF-κB activation by inhibiting interconnected ROS/IKK/NF-κB signaling pathways, can effectively inhibit both arthritic inflammation and cartilage and bone damage in the joints.
Wilforine, a sesquiterpene pyridine alkaloid, is an important bioactive compound in T. wilfordii plants and is effective in treating idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Wilforine exhibits an anti-inflammatory effect, which might be mediated by the down-regulation of inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-6, and NO. Additionally, it has insecticidal activity by inhibiting the Na+-K+-ATPase in the central nervous system.
Wilforlide A (3-Epiabruslactone A) is a natural product, separated from the ethanolic extract of tripterygium wilfordii. High-dose wilforlide A has obvious anti-inflammatory effect, but has no significant immune suppressive activity.
(-)-Epiafzelechin is a COX inhibitor with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, osteoprotective effects in a mature ovariectomized mouse model, ability to stimulate osteoblast activity and inhibit osteoclast activity.
trans-Nerolidol is a sesquiterpene alcohol isolated from the above-ground parts of the Saharan Valerian plant with antifungal activity. trans-Nerolidol inhibits cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner, and induces cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase.
(+)-Afzelechin (Afzelechin) is isolated from Eysenhardtia subcoriacea. It is an α-glucosidase activity inhibitor, offering neuroprotective effects against glutamate-induced neurotoxicity in HT22 cells and improving reduced glutathione levels in rat pancreas homogenates.
Salaspermic acid, a triterpenoid isolated from the stem bark of Kokoona ochracea, is an inhibitor of HIV reverse transcriptase and HIV replication in H9 lymphocytes, and can be used to study HIV infection.
3-Oxo-4-benzyl-3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo [2,1-c] oxazine-6-methylal is a natural product for research related to life sciences. The catalog number is TN6641 and the CAS number is 60026-28-0.
