| Targets |
Grossamide possesses potential anti-inflammatory effects and has potential anti-neuroinflammatory effects against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory response in BV2 microglia cells. It may target inflammatory pathways such as TLR-4-mediated NF-κB signaling.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
LPS-mediated inflammatory molecule synthesis is downregulated by grossamide [1]. In a dose-dependent way, grossamide (0-20 μM, 1 hour) suppresses TNF-α and IL-6 mRNA levels, NF-κB activation produced by LPS, and LPS-induced TLR4 and MyD88 expression without causing cytotoxicity. ..1].
In vitro, Grossamide has been shown to possess potential anti-inflammatory effects. It has potential anti-neuroinflammatory effects against LPS-induced inflammatory response in BV2 microglia cells. It suppresses TLR-4-mediated NF-κB signaling pathways in LPS-stimulated BV2 microglia cells. It reduces TNF-α and IL-6 in a dose-dependent manner. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo data for Grossamide are limited in the available literature. As a natural product with anti-inflammatory properties, it may have potential for research in neuroinflammation and related conditions. Further in vivo studies are needed to evaluate its therapeutic potential.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Grossamide's anti-neuroinflammatory activity can be characterized in BV2 microglia cells. Cells are stimulated with LPS to induce an inflammatory response, and Grossamide is tested for its ability to suppress inflammatory markers such as TNF-α and IL-6. Its effects on TLR-4-mediated NF-κB signaling pathways can be assessed.
