Acanthoic acid is a pimaradiene diterpene isolated from Acanthopanax koreanum with anti-inflammatory activities. Acanthoic acid downregulates LPS-induced IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α production in BALF, attenuates lung histopathologic changes, and inhibits infla
2,4,6-Trichlorol-3-methyl-5-methoxy-phenol 1-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 6)-β-d-glucopyranoside is a chlorophenyl glycoside that is commonly found in the bulbs of Lilium brownie var. viridulum. This compound has been observed to exhibit a weak inhibition of NO production in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells.
8-Methylsulfinyloctyl isothiocyanate is a compound with antimicrobial activity and notable inhibitory effects on plant growth. It also exhibits COX-2-mediated inflammatory response impairment in LPS-stimulated raw macrophages.
9,13β-Epidioxy-8(14)-abieten-18-oic acid has anti-inflammatory activities, it exhibits moderate activities on NO levels in LPS-stimulated murine microglia BV2 cells, with IC50 values of 57.3 ± 0.2 uM. It is also a potential antitumor-promoting diterpenoid, it shows potent inhibitory effects on Epstein-Barr virus early antigen (EBV-EA) activation induced by the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate. 9 α ,13 β -Epidioxyabeit-8(14)en-18-oic acid may contribute to the growth inhibitory effect of the pine needles and may play an important role in the allelopathy of red pine.
