Zeaxanthin
|
1. Lutein and Zeaxanthin in neural tissue may have biological effects that include antioxidation, anti-inflammation, and structural actions.
2. Lutein and Zeaxanthin may be protective against eye disease because they absorb damaging blue light that enters the eye. |

Shikonin acetyl
|
Acetylshikonin can effectively inhibit tumor cells, it can be used to treat hepatocellular carcinoma cells expressing hepatitis B virus X protein (HBX) by inducing ER stress , an oncoprotein from hepatitis B virus. Acetylshikonin inhibits the production of eicosanoid, is due to the attenuation of cytosolic phospholipase A(2) membrane recruitment via the decrease in [Ca(2+)](i) and to the blockade of cyclooxygenase and 5-lipoxygenase activity. |
BCN2465 |
Soyasaponin Bd
|
Cinnamic aldehyde, a COX-2 inhibitor, exhibits cardioprotective, antidepressant-like, anti-leukemia, anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory properties. Its supplementation can improve glucose and lipid homeostasis in diabetic animals. |
BCN2576 |
Aloin B
|
Dietary supplementation of aloe components (aloin, aloesin and aloe-gel) can ameliorate intestinal inflammatory responses in a 3% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis rat model, in particular, aloesin is the most potent inhibitor. The extract of A. vera and its active ingredient aloin cause melanin aggregation leading to skin lightening via alpha adrenergic receptor stimulation. |
BCN2594 |
Sesamol
|
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. |
