Product Data
Biological target:
Sclerotiorin inhibits soybean lipoxygenase-1 with an IC50 value of 4.2 µM.1 Sclerotiorin also exhibits a number of other activities including inhibition of cholesterol ester transfer protein (IC50 = 19.4 µM), inhibition of Grb2-Shc interaction (IC50 = 22 µM), and antagonism of endothelin receptors (IC50 = 114 and 152 µM for human ETA and ETB, respectively).
In vitro activity:
Sclerotiorin may have potential in Alzheimer’s disease treatment. In vitro, sclerotiorin potently delayed both seeded and nonseeded Aβ42 polymerization in cell-free assays. Sclerotiorin kinetically stabilize small Aβ42 oligomers, which inhibits fibrillogenesis. The self-assembly of Aβ42 into fibrillar aggregates is associated with neuronal dysfunction and toxicity in Alzheimer's patient brains, suggesting that small molecules, like sclerotiorin, acting on this process might interfere with pathogenesis.
