13(18)-Oleanen-3-one
Catalog No: CFN98023
δ-Amyrone(13(18)-Oleanen-3-one), a specific inhibitor of cyclooxygenase-2, possesses anti-inflammatory effects, which may be relevant to the regulation of COX-2; it exerts its protective effect on experimental gastric ulcer by inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathways, which subsequently reduces overproduction of the inducible enzymes iNOS and suppresses the release of the inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-6 and NO. δ-Amyrone has protective activity on LPS-induced endotoxic shock, which is attributed to reducing NO production and mediating the pro-inflammatory cytokines, inhibited NF-κB expression.
