Product Data
Biological target:
Nerolidol is a natural membrane-active sesquiterpene, with antitumor, antibacterial, antifungal and antiparasitic activity.
In vitro activity:
This study investigated the antitumor mechanism of cis-nerolidol in bladder carcinoma cell lines. The results of these experiments on two bladder carcinoma cell lines revealed that nerolidol inhibited cell proliferation and induced two distinct cell death pathways. This study confirmed that cis-nerolidol induces DNA damage and ER stress. Reference: Cancers (Basel). 2023 Feb 3;15(3):981. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36765938/
In vivo activity:
This study investigated the effect of nerolidol in a rat model of renal IRI. Nerolidol significantly attenuated the alterations in serum creatinine and urea, creatinine clearance, urinary albumin and the urinary albumin-creatinine ratio. Nerolidol also significantly attenuated the alterations in markers of kidney injury; proinflammatory, profibrotic and apoptotic cytokines; oxidative stress markers; and histological changes.
