Antioxidants

Epicatechin
Catalog No: CFN98781

(−)Epicatechin is a flavonoid present in cocoa, green tea and red wine. It is a strong antioxidant, has antinociceptive, insulin mimic actions and improves heart health; it has the potential to increase CREB-regulated gene expression and increase GluR2 levels and thus modulate neurotransmission, plasticity and synaptogenesis. (-)-Epicatechin inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) with an IC50 of 3.2 μM; it inhibits the IL-1β-induced expression of iNOS by blocking the nuclear localization of the p65 subunit of NF-κB.

Kaempferide
Catalog No: CFN98782

Kaempferide has a variety of effects including anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties.it can protect DNA from radiation induced lesions resulting from radiation exposures under in vitro and ex vivo conditions.

Baicalein
Catalog No: CFN98783

Baicalein has neuroprotective, anticancer, antioxidant and free radical scavenging effects, it inhibits mTORC1 pathway and PI3K kinase activity. Baicalein is mainly due to autophagic cell death through activation of the AMPK/ULK1 pathway and inhibition of mTOR/Raptor complex 1 expression; it can induce cancer cell death and proliferation retardation by the inhibition of CDC2 kinase and survivin associated with opposite role of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and AKT.

Luteolin
Catalog No: CFN98784

Luteolin is a non-selective phisphodiesterase PDE inhibitor for PDE1-5 with Ki of 15.0 μM, 6.4 μM, 13.9 μM, 11.1 μM and 9.5 μM, respectively. Luteolin has anti-oxidant, anti-inflammation, anti-allergy anti-myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, and anticancer, has been used in Chinese traditional medicine for treating various diseases such as hypertension, inflammatory disorders, and cancer. Luteolin inhibits NF-κB, and inhibits interleukin (IL)-1β function induction of the inflammation biomarker cyclooxygenase (COX)-2.

Chrysoeriol
Catalog No: CFN98785

Chrysoeriol has antioxidant, antiinflammatory, antitumor, antimicrobial, antiviral, and free radical scavenging activities, it also shows selective bronchodilator effect. Chrysoeriol can potently inhibit the induction of nitric oxide synthase by blocking activator protein 1 (AP-1) activation and its anti-inflammatory effects; it can potentially serve as a novel cardioprotective agent against doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity without affecting the antitumor activity of DOX. Chrysoeriol may be used for the prevention and treatment of vascular diseases and during restenosis after coronary angioplasty, it can inhibit the downstream signal transduction pathways of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-Rbeta, including ERK1/2, p38, and Akt phosphorylation.
