Hot Products
Hot products from BioCrick which is a professional high-purity natural products manufacturer are well known to scientists around the world because of their high purity and stability. Each product is a chemical compound or substance produced by a living organism—that is, found in nature. In the broadest sense, natural products include any substance produced by life.Natural products remain the best sources of drugs and drug leads, and this remains true today despite the fact that many pharmaceutical companies have deemphasized natural products research in favor of HTP screening of combinatorial libraries during the past 2 decades. From 1940s to date, 131 (74.8%) out of 175 small molecule anticancer drugs are natural product-based/inspired, with 85 (48.6%) being either natural products or derived therefrom. From 1981 to date, 79 (80%) out of 99 small molecule anticancer drugs are natural product-based/inspired, with 53 (53%) being either natural products or derived therefrom. Among the 20 approved small molecule New Chemical Entities (NCEs) in 2010, a half of them are natural products.

Cat.No. | Product Name |
---|---|
BCC8030 | L-Glutathione Reduced |
Glutathione plays important roles in antioxidant defense, nutrient metabolism, and regulation of cellular events (including gene expression, DNA and protein synthesis, cell proliferation and apoptosis, signal transduction, cytokine production and immune response, and protein glutathionylation); glutathione deficiency contributes to oxidative stress, which plays a key role in aging and the pathogenesis of many diseases (including kwashiorkor, seizure, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, liver disease, cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, HIV, AIDS, cancer, heart attack, stroke, and diabetes). | |
BCN6648 | 1alpha-Hydroxytorilin |
1. 1alpha-Hydroxytorilin exhibits cytotoxicity against human A549, SK-OV-3, SK-MEL-2, and HCT15 tumor cells. | |
BCN6653 | Robustine |
1. Robustine exhibits inhibition (IC 50 < or = 18.19 microM) of superoxide anion generation by human neutrophils in response to formyl- l-methionyl- l-leucyl- l-phenylalanine/cytochalasin B (FMLP/CB), suggests that it may have anti-inflammatory activity. | |
BCN6657 | Sprengerinin C |
1. Sprengerinin C can strongly suppress tumor angiogenesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, it blocks vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2-dependent phosphoinositide 3-kinase/Akt/mTOR/matrix metalloproteinase and p38 MAPK/matrix metalloproteinase pathways,two major pathways for tumor angiogenesis; sprengerinin C also can induce HepG-2/BEL7402 cell apoptosis by activating NADPH oxidase/reactive oxygen species-dependent caspase apoptosis pathway and suppress HepG-2/BEL7402 cell growth through p53-mediated G2/M-phase arrest, suggests that sprengerinin C exerts anti-tumorigenic effects in hepatocellular carcinoma via inhibition of proliferation and angiogenesis and induction of apoptosis. | |
BCN6659 | Torilolone |
1. Torilin and torilolone show hepatoprotective effects on tacrine-induced cytotoxicity in human liver-derived Hep G2 cells,the EC50 values are 20.6 +/- 1.86 and 3.6 +/- 0.1 microM, respectively; and silybin as a positive control shows an EC50 value of 69.0 +/- 3.4 microM. | |
BCN6660 | Taxoquinone |
1. Taxoquinone shows significant and concentration-dependent antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities of DPPH, nitric oxide, superoxide and hydroxyl free radicals by 78.83%, 72.42%, 72.99% and 85.04%, as compared to standard compounds ascorbic acid (81.69%, 74.62%, 73% and 73.79%). 2. Taxoquinone at the concentration range of 100-3,000 ug/mL and 200-1,000 ug/mL shows potent efficacy on inhibiting α-glucosidase and tyrosinase enzymes by 9.24-51.32% and 11.14-52.32%, respectively; suggests that taxoquinone could as a novel candidate in food and medicine industry as a natural alternative medicine to prevent diabetes mellitus type-2 related disorders and as a depigmentation agent. 3. Taxoquinone (100 ug/disc) displays potential anticandidal effect against Candia albicans. 4. Taxoquinone has strong antibacterial effect, it could be used as a promising antibacterial agent in food industry to inhibit the growth of certain important foodborne pathogens. | |
BCN6408 | Futoenone |
1. Futoenone and a series of its derivatives have shown inhibitory activities against matrix metalloproteinases, the molecular modelings of these compounds indicate the preferred binding of the P2′ site of the enzymes. 2. Neolignan derivative compounds of the 2,4-diaryl-1,3-dithiolane and futoenone variety exhibit both platelet activating factor receptor(PAF)and 5-lipoxygenase antagonist activity. | |
BCN6662 | Licorisoflavan A |
1. Licorisoflavan A shows weak scavenging activity against superoxide anion radical. 2. Licorisoflavan A has bactericidal effects on S. mutans UA159 at the concentration of ≥4 g/ml, it can be useful in developing oral hygiene products, such as gargling solutions and dentifrices for preventing dental caries. 3. Licorisoflavan A and licoricidin have potential for the development of novel host-modulating strategies for the treatment of cytokine and/or MMP-mediated disorders such as periodontitis. |
