Sesamin
Catalog No: CFN97034
Sesamin has antifibrotic, cholesterol-lowering, anti-cancer, antioxidative, neuroprotective, anti-atherosclerosis, anti-inflammatory properties, it also might be beneficial in the prevention of hypertension and stroke. Sesamin attenuates intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 expression in vitro in TNF-α-treated human aortic endothelial cells and in vivo in apolipoprotein-E-deficient mice.Sesamin also can protect β-cells from damage caused by AGEs through suppressing NADPH oxidase-mediated oxidative stress.
Sesamol
Catalog No: CFN90452
Sesamol is regarded as a major antioxidant component in the oil with chemoprevention, radioprotective efficacy, anti-antiinflammary, antimutagenic, and antihepatotoxic activities. Sesamol inhibits melanin biosynthesis by down-regulating tyrosinase activity and melanin production via regulation of gene expression of melanogenesis-related proteins through modulation of MITF activity, which promotes phosphorylation of p38 and JNK in melan-a cells.
Shikimic acid
Catalog No: CFN99436
Shikimic acid(Shikimate), more commonly known as its anionic form shikimate, is an important biochemical intermediate in plants and microorganisms, has great potential for the design and synthesis of enzyme inhibitors. It reversed the H2O2 induced oxidative damage in hepatocytes, probably through the inhibition of NF-κB, with the activation of PI3K/Akt/Nrf2 pathway and reduction of apoptosis by interfering the SAPK/JNK/Bax pathway; it also profoundly inhibited pancreatic lipase activity by 66%, thus providing another valuable therapeutic aspect for treating diet induced obesity in humans.
