Lithospermic acid
Catalog No: CFN98546
Lithospermic acid has anti-HIV, antioxidant ,anti-inflammatory, and hepatoprotective effects, is a competitive inhibitor of xanthine oxidas (XO), can directly scavenge superoxide and inhibit superoxide production in vitro, and presents hypouricemic actions in vivo. Lithospermic acid has inhibitory effects on proliferation and migration of rat vascular smooth muscle cells, it has a preventive effect on the development of diabetic retinopathy. Lithospermic acid can attenuate 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridine-induced neurotoxicity by blocking neuronal apoptotic and neuroinflammatory pathways. Lithospermic acid can attenuate mesenteric ischemia reperfusion injury in rat intestines by increasing tissue SOD and GPx activities and decreasing MDA and MPO levels, also improves morphological alterations which occurred after periods of reperfusion.
Isoquercitrin
Catalog No: CFN98753
Isoquercitrin has anti-tumoral, antihypertensive, anti-osteoporosis, anti-allergy,
anti-inflammatory, and antiasthmatic activities, it also may be as a potential therapeutic agent against neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease. Isoquercitrin is an inhibitor of Wnt/β-catenin that acts downstream of the β-catenin nuclear translocation; it is also a potential stimulator of bone mineralization used for prophylaxis of osteoporotic disorders. Isoquercitrin inhibited carbachol and leukotriene D4 -induced contraction in guinea-pig airways, and it induced hypotension in rats is an event dependent on the inhibition of angiotensin II generation by angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE).
Crocin
Catalog No: CFN90227
Crocin is a water-soluble carotenoid pigment of saffron (Crocus sativus L.), it has been used as a spice for flavoring and coloring food preparations. Crocin has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, anti-apoptotic, anti-asthma, anti-cancer, and hypolipidemic effects. Crocin improves toxic effects of diazinon via reducing lipid peroxidation and restoring altered contractile and relaxant responses in rat aorta; it also protects retinal photoreceptors against light-induced cell death. Crocin can also promote ovarian cancer HO-8910 cell apoptosis, most likely by increasing p53 and Fas/APO-1 expression, and then activating the apoptotic pathway regulated by Caspase-3.
