Marein
Catalog No: CFN90851
Marein shows neuroprotective effect on PC12 cell damage induced by methylglyoxal, which is due to a reduction of damage to mitochondria function and activation of the AMPK signal pathway, it may be a potent compound for preventing/counteracting diabetic encephalopathy. Marein can improve insulin resistance induced by high glucose in HepG2 cells through CaMKK/AMPK/GLUT1 to promote glucose uptake, through IRS/Akt/GSK-3β to increase glycogen synthesis, and through Akt/FoxO1 to decrease gluconeogenesis. Marein shows antioxidant activity, it shows Histone deacetylase enzymes (HDACs) inhibitory activity and it also can inhibit TNFα-induced NF-κB activation.
Desoxyrhapontigenin
Catalog No: CFN90854
Desoxyrhapontigenin has significant hypoglycemic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects, it shows inhibition of iNOS and COX-2 expression via the down-regulation of the MAPK signaling pathways and the inhibition of NF-κB and Akt activation.
Desoxyrhapontigenin up-regulates Nrf2-mediated heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) expression in macrophages and inflammatory lung injury, and HO-1 is an important anti-inflammatory, antioxidative and cytoprotective enzyme. Desoxyrhapontigenin shows significant monoamine oxidase inhibitory activities with the IC50 value of 11.5 ± 1.1 uM.
