Butein
|
|
Butein is a chelator of ferrous and copper ions, is able to inhibit the activation of protein tyrosine kinase, NF-κB and STAT3, also inhibits EGFR. Butein can inactivate PMA-activated AP-1, due to the blocking of JNK-mediated c-Jun phosphorylation through the inhibition of ATP binding. Butein has potent anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant activities, it also has a hypotensive effect, at least in part, via the inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme. |

Luteolin
|
|
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. |

Syringic acid
|
|
Syringic acid is a potential antioxidant used in traditional Chinese medicine and is an emerging nutraceutical. It has potential anti-angiogenic, anti-glycating, anti-hyperglycaemic,antimicrobial, fungitoxicity, neuroprotective, antimitogenic, chemo-sensitizing, anti-obesity, anti-inflammatory, anti-steatotic, and memory-enhancing properties. Syringic acid can ameliorate L-arginine methyl ester-induced hypertension by reducing oxidative stress, and can reduce the pancreatic damage induced by alloxan and stimulated β-cell regeneration in diabetic rats. Syringic acid can suppress hepatic fibrosis in chronic liver injury, it inhibits the activation of cultured hepatic stellate cells. |

Andrographolide
|
|
Andrographolide is an antiinflammatory, antiviral, anti-cancer , hepatoprotective, antithrombotic, hypotensive and antiatherosclerotic drug, it can cure hyperpigmentation disorders. Andrographolide protects against chemical-induced oxidative damage by up-regulating the gene transcription and activity of antioxidant enzymes in various tissues.Andrographolide has potential as a leading compound in the prevention or treatment of obesity and insulin resistance, can ameliorate lipid metabolism and improve glucose use in mice with HFD-induced obesity. |
