Anticancer

Taraxerol
Catalog No: CFN99381

Taraxerol can be used as a lipid biomarker for mangrove input to the SE Atlantic. Taraxerol has potent anti-inflammatory effects,it downregulates the expression of proinflammatory mediators in macrophages by interfering with the activation of TAK1 and Akt, thus preventing NF-κB activation. Taraxerol also has anti-cancer activity, it shows inhibitory effects on AGS cell growth through inducing G2/M arrest and promotion of cell apoptosis, taraxeryl acetate has less effect on cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of AGS cells than taraxerol.

Paulownin
Catalog No: CFN99394

Paulownin has the action of anti-inflammation,analgesia,immunity,hypoglycemia and has little toxicity. Paulownin demonstrates inhibitory activities against H. pylori Cystathionine gamma- synthase (HpCGS) with IC50 values of 19 +/- 2 microM, it can highly inhibit the growth of H. pylori and exhibit strong inhibitory specificity against H. pylori related to E. coli. (+)-Paulownin is active against the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line with IC50 values of 14.0 uM.

alpha-Terthienylmethanol
Catalog No: CFN99395

Alpha-terthienylmethanol possesses potent cytotoxic activity against human endometrial cancer cells; it inhibits growth mediated by the induction of apoptosis, as shown by the accumulation of sub-G1 and apoptotic cells.

Protopine
Catalog No: CFN99399

Protopine acts as a potent inhibitor of thromboxane synthesis and PAF with hepatoprotective, antidepressant, antioxidant, antispasmodic and relaxant properties. Protopine is also a novel microtubule-stabilizing agent, causes mitotic arrest and apoptotic cell death in human hormone-refractory prostate cancer cell lines. Protopine blocks phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAP kinases) and also blocks activation of a nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB).

Rosmarinic acid
Catalog No: CFN99103

Rosmarinic acid has antiviral, antibacterial, antiinflammatory, neuroprotective, anticancer, anti-lipid peroxidative, apoptotic,and antioxidant activities. It is used for food preservation, and to treat peptic ulcers, arthritis, cataract, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, bronchial asthma, and several human neurodegenerative diseases caused by oxidative stress. Rosmarinic acid has the ability to block complement fixation, inhibit lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase activity and inhibit the expression of CCL11 and CCR3 by suppressing the IKK-β activity in NF-κB activation signaling. It inhibits MAO-A, MAO-B and COMT enzymes with IC50s of 50.1, 184.6 and 26.7 μM, respectively.
