MedKoo Cat#: 146192 | Name: Chalepensin

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Chalepensin is a flavonoid glycoside found in various plants, including Ruta chalepensis (common rue), and is known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. It exerts its biological effects by scavenging free radicals and modulating inflammatory pathways, particularly by inhibiting enzymes like cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX). Chalepensin has shown potential in treating conditions like inflammation, pain, and bacterial infections. Its therapeutic properties are being explored for use in natural medicine, particularly for managing oxidative stress-related diseases.
