inflammatory factors

Hydrangenol is a natural product and can be isolated from Hydrangea serrata leaves. Hydrangenol is an antiphotoaging compound with oral activity. Hydrangenol can reduce MMP and inflammatory cytokine expression and increase moisturizing factors and antioxidant genes level, result in preventing wrinkle formation.

Isotretinoin (13-cis-Retinoic acid) binds to and activates nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RARs), which act as transcription factors that promote cell differentiation and apoptosis. This naturally occurring retinoic acid has potential antineoplastic activity, exhibits immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory responses, and inhibits ornithine decarboxylase, thereby decreasing polyamine synthesis and keratinization.

Allicin exerts antioxidant, bactericidal, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory activities, it exerts an inhibitory immunomodulatory effect on intestinal epithelial cells. Allicin could significantly inhibit vascular smooth muscle cells' proliferation and migration induced by insulin, which may be related to the inhibition of the activation of ERK signal path. Allicin is beneficial in reducing blood cholesterol, triglycerides levels and systolic blood pressure in hypercholesterolemic rats, it may beneficially affect two risk factors for atherosclerosis-hyperlipidemia and hypertension.

Rosarin has anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. Rosarin supresses the expression of the proinflammatory factors iNOS, IL-1 β, and TNF- α in the kidney and prefrontal cortex of brain in mice .

Thalifendine is one of the main products of Berberine demethylation catalyzed by CYP51 (secreted by intestinal flora), which has anti-inflammatory effects, reduces intestinal inflammation, improves intestinal barrier function, and reduces the production of inflammatory factors.

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.

Myristicin (Myristicine) is a natural product found in spices and umbelliferous plants. Myristicin has anti-cholinergic, Antibacterial, and hepatoprotective effects, it also has anti-inflammatory properties related with its inhibition of NO, cytokines,chemokines, and growth factors in dsRNA-stimulated macrophages via the calcium pathway. Myristicin can induce Apoptosis as characterised by alterations in the mitochondrial membrane potential, cytochrome c release, Caspase-3 activation, PARP-cleavage and DNA fragmentation.

4beta-Hydroxywithanolide E(4bHWE) can inhibit the growth of colon cancer monolayer and spheroid cultures, it assert its anti-tumor activity in carcinogenic progression and develop into a dietary chemopreventive agent, it affects alternative splicing by mo

Dehydroleucodine has antidiarrheal, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, embryotoxicity, gastric cytoprotective, anti-cancer activities. Dehydroleucodine has an important inhibitory effect in cellular pathways regulating adipocyte differentiation by modulat
