Cnidilide

SKU: orb3179544

Description

Cnidilide is a natural alkyl phthalide compound that can be isolated from the rhizomes of Cnidium officinale. It reduces the production of NO and PGE2 by inhibiting LPS-induced expression of iNOS and COX-2. Additionally, Cnidilide suppresses the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. It specifically inhibits the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and JNK, as well as the activation of downstream kinase MSK-1. Moreover, Cnidilide blocks signaling pathways by inhibiting the transcriptional activities of AP-1 and NF-κB. This compound is useful in the study of inflammatory diseases.
