resveratrol analog

Resveratrol analog 2 is an analog of Resveratrol, a natural polyphenolic phytoalexin with anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, cardioprotective, and anti-cancer properties.

Resveratrol analog 1, an analog of Resveratrol, is a natural polyphenolic phytoalexin with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cardioprotective, and anti-cancer properties.

Rhapontigenin (Protigenin) is a mechanism-based, selective inactivator of cytochrome P450 1A1 (IC50: 400 nM), an aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase which activates polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that act as procarcinogens. Rhapontigenin is a natural analog of resveratrol with antioxidant and anti-cancer activity. At higher concentrations, rhapontigenin inhibits the proliferation of HL-60R and HepG2 cancer cell lines (IC50: 48 μM).

Isorhapontigenin (Isorhapotogenin) is a tetrahydroxylated stilbenoid with a methoxy group. It is an isomer of rhapontigenin and an analog of resveratrol. It is found in the Chinese herb Gnetum cleistostachyum, in Gnetum parvifolium and in the seeds of the palm Aiphanes aculeata.

NQO2-IN-1, a resveratrol analog, is a potent quinone oxidoreductase 2 (NQO2) inhibitor (IC50=95 nM) with antitumor potential through the generation of ROS and up-regulation of DR5 (death receptor 5) to reverse trial resistance and promote apoptosis.

trans-Trimethoxyresveratrol (MR-3), a natural methoxylated analog of resveratrol, inhibits breast Y cell invasiveness by downregulation of PI3K Akt and Wnt β-catenin signaling cascades and reversal of epithelial-mesenchymal transition.

Azo-Resveratrol is an analog of Resveratrol used as a potent tyrosinase inhibitor.

4-Hydroxyresveratrol (3,4,5,4'-Tetrahydroxystibene) is a resveratrol analog that variably induces the expression of pro-apoptotic genes such as p53 and Bax. It triggers apoptosis in SV40 virus-transformed WI38 cells (WI38VA), but not in WI38 cells. Additionally, 4-Hydroxyresveratrol significantly increases the expression of p53, GADD45, and Bax genes in WI38VA cells, while suppressing the expression of the bcl-2 gene.

The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) regulates the expression of numerous genes involved in immunity and inflammation, cellular stress responses, growth, and apoptosis. Resveratrol, a polyphenolic trans-stilbene, is a known inhibitor of the activation of NF-κB and exhibits activity against a wide variety of cancer cells. CAY10512 is a substituted trans-stilbene analog of resveratrol that is 100-fold more potent as measured by antioxidant activity. The IC50 value for inhibition of TNFα-induced activation of NF-κB by CAY10512 is 0.15 μM compared to 20 μM by resveratrol.
