Products with Vasorelaxation bioactivity
| Cat.No. | Product Name |
|---|---|
| BCN5724 | Uvaol |
| Uvaol has anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative, and vasorelaxing activities. Uvaol reduces cardiac hypertrophy and left ventricle remodeling induced by angiotensin II in mice by diminishing fibrosis and myocyte area; it inhibits the angiotensin II-induced proliferation in a PPAR-γ-dependent manner, while at high doses they activate pathways of programmed cell death that are dependent on JNK and PPAR-γ. | |
| BCN5726 | Erythrodiol |
| Erythrodiol is the precursor of pentacyclic triterpenic acids, it exerts antiproliferative and proapoptotic activity in colon adenocarcinoma cells. Erythrodiol may have interesting therapeutic potential as new vasodilator drugs, thus protecting the cardiovascular system. | |
| BCN5730 | Galangin |
| Galangin is an agonist/antagonist of the arylhydrocarbon receptor, and also shows inhibition of CYP1A1 activity. Galangin has anti-proliferation, anti-metastatic, anti-inflammatory, vasorelaxant, antiviral, anti-allergic inflammatory,anti-obesity effects; it may be a potential candidate for the treatment of vitiligo. Galangin can inhibit Topo I activity and reduce the unwinding rate of single stranded DNNA in tumor cells, which plays an important role in induction of A549 and H46 cell apoptosis. Galangin shows an inhibitory effect on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity with the IC(50) of 120 microM; it also inhibits ERK, NF-κB-p65 and proinflammatory gene expression. | |
| BCN5930 | Calycosin |
| Calycosin, a selective estrogen receptor modulator, is also a vasorelaxant and a noncompetitive Ca(2+) channel blocker. It has anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective,antineoplastic, and effective skin-lightening activities. Calycosin exhibited tyrosinase inhibitory activity with an IC(50) value of 38.4 microM, it suppressed breast cancer cell growth via ERβ-dependent regulation of IGF-1R, p38 MAPK and PI3K/Akt pathways. | |
| BCN5956 | Fangchinoline |
| Fangchinoline is a nonspecific Ca2+ channel blocker, which has neuroprotective, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, vasodilating and hypotensive effects. It inhibited cell proliferation via Akt/GSK-3beta/ cyclin D1 signaling and induceed apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. It can inhibit human immunodeficiency virus type 1 replication by interfering with gp160 proteolytic processing. | |
