Asperenone has been identified as an inhibitor of 15-lipoxygenase, an enzyme involved in the metabolism of arachidonic acid, and has demonstrated platelet aggregation inhibitory activity. The structure of asperenone consists of a conjugated polyene chain with a phenyl group, contributing to its biological activities. Research has shown that asperenone can inhibit human platelet aggregation, which may have implications for cardiovascular health.
