Neuroprotection

beta-Eudesmol
Catalog No: CFN99537

Beta-eudesmol has potential anti-angiogenic and anti-tumour activities, it inhibits angiogenesis by suppressing CREB activation in growth factor signalling pathway, is an inhibitor of tumour growth. Beta-eudesmol induces neurite outgrowth in rat pheochromocytoma cells accompanied by an activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase, it may be a promising lead compound for potentiating neuronal function, and the drug may be useful in helping to clarify the mechanisms underlying neuronal differentiation.

Cycloastragenol
Catalog No: CFN99538

Cycloastragenol has been shown to extend T cell proliferation by increasing telomarase activity showing that it may also help delay the onset of cellular aging; it is an extraordinary wound healing agent; it inhibits the apoptosis of PC12 induced by 6-OHDA, may be as potential neuroprotective agents in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Cycloastragenol and astragaloside IV can suppress ROS-associated ER stress and then inhibit TXNIP/NLRP3 inflammasome activation with regulation of AMPK activity, and thereby ameliorate endothelial dysfunction by inhibiting inflammation and reducing cell apoptosis. Cycloastragenol and astragaloside IV have been shown to improve the proliferative response of CD8+ T lymphocytes from HIV-infected patients by upregulating telomerase activity, they also may exert their cellular effects through the activation of the Src/MEK/ERK pathway.

Danshensu
Catalog No: CFN99539

Danshensu has anxiolytic-like, cardioprotective, neuroprotective, and antioxidant activities. It can enhance HO-1 expression to suppress 6-OHDA-induced oxidative damage via PI3K/Akt/Nrf2 signaling pathways and can reduce 6-OHDA-induced dopaminergic neuronal loss in zebrafish. Chronic treatment with danshensu can prevent/attenuate the formation of atherosclerosis.

Paeoniflorin
Catalog No: CFN99544

Paeoniflorin, a novel heat shock protein-inducing compound, is mediated by the activation of heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1), which has antiallergic, anti-obesity, anti-inflammatory and immunoregulatory effects. Paeoniflorin can activate PI3K/Akt signaling pathway to protect the PC12 cell injury induced by Aβ25-35, it protects thymocytes against irradiation-induced cell damage by scavenging ROS and attenuating the activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinases.

Gastrodin
Catalog No: CFN99549

Gastrodin has antioxidant, cytoprotective, anticonvulsant, and anti-inflammation activities, it may be useful in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Gastrodin also has protective effect to the prevention of neurotoxicity induced by ischemic stroke, the mechanism is by improving anti-oxidant and anti-inflammation activities, inhibiting apoptosis pathway, and increasing Akt phosphorylation and Nrf2 expression. Gastrodin activates PI3-K/Akt signaling and that inhibition of this pathway reverses the inhibitory effects of gastrodin on NF-κB and MAPKs activation in H9c2 cardiomyocytes.
