Products with Anticonvulsant bioactivity
| Cat.No. | Product Name |
|---|---|
| BCN5423 | Vitexin |
| Vitexin, an HIF-1alpha inhibitor, which has anticonvulsant, anti-depressant, anti-glycation, spasmolytic, anti-metastatic, antitumor, anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive activities. Vitexin can be effectively used for the prevention of UV-induced adverse skin reactions such as free radical production and skin cell damage; it non-competitively inhibits Ach but not the Ca(2+) influx. | |
| BCN5557 | Chrysin |
| Chrysin, a naturally-occurring ligand for benzodiazepine receptors, with anticonvulsant , anti-inflammation, anti-cancer, hepatoprotective, and anti-oxidation properties. Chrysin induced apoptosis is mediated through caspase activation and Akt inactivation in U937 leukemia cells; it prevented the development of DN in HFD/STZ-induced type 2 diabetic rats through anti-inflammatory effects in the kidney by specifically targeting the TNF-α pathway. | |
| BCN5574 | Imperatorin |
| Imperatorin is an effective of NO synthesis inhibitor (IC50=9.2 μmol), which also is a BChE inhibitor (IC50=31.4 μmol); it is a weak agonist of TRPV1 with EC50 of 12.6±3.2 μM. Imperatorin is a potent myorelaxant agent and acts as a calcium antagonist on vascular smooth muscle. Imperatorin has anticonvulsant, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, neuroprotection, and anti-cancer effects, it also has been used in herbal formulations for the treatment of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. Imperatorin dampens neuronal excitability by inhibiting voltage-gated Na + channels (VGSC), and blocks the HSP27 and HSP72 gene expression. | |
| BCN5579 | Sphondin |
| 1. Sphondin possesses an inhibitory effect on IL-1beta-induced increase in the level of COX-2 protein and PGE(2) release in A549 cells through suppression of NF-kappaB activity, it may have the therapeutic potential as an anti-inflammatory drug on airway inflammation. 2. Sphondin, 8-methoxypsoralen, and khellin have delayed phototoxic effects inAedes aegypti. 3. Sphondin has NO production inhibitory activity, due to the effect of iNOS expression, it may act as a potent inhibitor of NO production under tissue-damaging inflammatory conditions. 4. Sphondin may have anticonvulsant activity. 5. Sphondin shows anti-proliferative activity and causes G2/M arrest at concentrations of 0.05-15.0 uM, it may have anti-tumor effects. | |
| BCN5703 | Coixol |
| Coixol acts as a central muscle relaxant with an anti-convulsant effect; it can regulate gene expression, production and secretion of mucin, by directly acting on airway epithelial cells. Coixol interacts with the pituitary to stimulate reproduction in voles, it also has the ability to interact with FSH to stimulate follicular development and increase ovulation. | |
