Altenin is a natural compound derived from the plant Altenanthera brasiliana, known for its potential therapeutic properties, particularly in the treatment of inflammatory and metabolic disorders. It exhibits anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and possibly antidiabetic effects by modulating key signaling pathways in the body. Altenin works by reducing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and inhibiting oxidative stress, which helps alleviate symptoms associated with chronic inflammation and metabolic dysfunction. Its mechanism involves the modulation of enzymes and transcription factors that regulate inflammation and metabolic processes, making it a candidate for developing treatments for diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular conditions.
