Anti-obesity

Syringic acid
Catalog No: CFN98884

Syringic acid is a potential antioxidant used in traditional Chinese medicine and is an emerging nutraceutical. It has potential anti-angiogenic, anti-glycating, anti-hyperglycaemic,antimicrobial, fungitoxicity, neuroprotective, antimitogenic, chemo-sensitizing, anti-obesity, anti-inflammatory, anti-steatotic, and memory-enhancing properties. Syringic acid can ameliorate L-arginine methyl ester-induced hypertension by reducing oxidative stress, and can reduce the pancreatic damage induced by alloxan and stimulated β-cell regeneration in diabetic rats. Syringic acid can suppress hepatic fibrosis in chronic liver injury, it inhibits the activation of cultured hepatic stellate cells.
Euscaphic acid
Catalog No: CFN98888

Euscaphic acid has anti-diabetic, and anti-inflammatory activities, it inhibits LPS-induced inflammatory responses by interference with the clustering of TRAF6 with IRAK1 and TAK1, resulting in blocking the activation of IKK and MAPKs signal transduction to downregulate NF-κB activations. Euscaphic acid induces death by activation of caspase-3, dependent apoptotic pathway. Euscaphic acid and tormentic acid have inhibitory effect on high fat diet-induced obesity in the rat. Euscaphic acid also has anti-contraction effects on rat’s aortic smooth muscle.
Galangin
Catalog No: CFN98918

Galangin is an agonist/antagonist of the arylhydrocarbon receptor, and also shows inhibition of CYP1A1 activity. Galangin has anti-proliferation, anti-metastatic, anti-inflammatory, vasorelaxant, antiviral, anti-allergic inflammatory,anti-obesity effects; it may be a potential candidate for the treatment of vitiligo. Galangin can inhibit Topo I activity and reduce the unwinding rate of single stranded DNNA in tumor cells, which plays an important role in induction of A549 and H46 cell apoptosis. Galangin shows an inhibitory effect on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity with the IC(50) of 120 microM; it also inhibits ERK, NF-κB-p65 and proinflammatory gene expression.
Erycibelline
Catalog No: CFN00157

Erycibelline has antiobesity activity, it may be a useful therapeutic agent for body weight control by downregulating adipogenesis and lipogenesis.
Obacunone
Catalog No: CFN97233

Obacunone is a novel activator of Nrf2, which exhibits anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, antivirulence, insecticidal, anti-proliferative and anti-aromatase activities. Obacunone stimulates muscle hypertrophy and prevents obesity and hyperglycemia, and that these beneficial effects are likely to be mediated through the activation of TGR5 and inhibition of PPARγ transcriptional activity. Obacunone significantly inhibits aromatase activity in an in vitro enzyme assay with an IC50 value of 28.04 μM, and it also inhibits the p38 MAPK signaling pathway.
