Momordin Ic
Catalog No: CFN99726
Momordin Ic has hypoglycemic, anticancer, anti-allergic, anti-pruritogenic, hepatoprotective, antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects. It accelerates gastrointestinal transit partially by stimulating synthesis of 5-HT to act through 5-HT(2), possibly 5-HT(2C) and/or 5-HT(2B) receptors, which, in turn, increases synthesis of prostaglandins. Momordin Ic induces apoptosis through oxidative stress-regulated mitochondrial dysfunction involving the MAPK and PI3K-mediated iNOS and HO-1 pathways.
5-Hydroxytryptophan
Catalog No: CFN99742
5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is the precursor of serotonin , has been widely used as a dietary supplement to raise serotonin level, it is an effective drug against depression, insomnia, obesity, chronic headaches, etc. 5-HTP supplementation can inhibit endothelial serotonylation, leukocyte recruitment, and allergic inflammation, it also can reduce the symptoms of anxiety/depression of that patients with allergy/asthma. 5-HTP
may be involved in inducing the female to stay in copula and delay egg-laying to prevent re-mating of the female.
Ginsenoside Compound K
Catalog No: CFN99756
Ginsenoside compound K (C-K) is a metabolite of the protopanaxadiol-type saponins of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, has long been used to treat against the development of cancer, inflammation, allergies, and diabetes; C-K acts as a unique HUVEC migration inhibitor by regulating MMP expression, as well as the activity of SPHK1 and its related sphingolipid metabolites. C-K exhibits anti-inflammatory effects by reducing iNOS and COX-2, C-K exhibits an inhibition against the activity of CYP2C9 and CYP2A6 in human liver microsomes with IC50s of 32.0±3.6 μM and 63.6±4.2 μM, respectively. C-K promotes Aβ clearance by enhancing autophagy via the mTOR signaling pathway in primary astrocytes.
