MedKoo Cat#: 146199 | Name: Sphondin

Description:

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

Sphondin is a naturally occurring furanocoumarin compound found in various plants, particularly in the Apiaceae family. It exhibits biological activities such as anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anticancer effects. Sphondin acts primarily by inhibiting enzymes like cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), thus reducing inflammation and modulating cell signaling pathways involved in tumor growth. Its applications are being explored in pharmaceuticals and traditional medicine for managing conditions like arthritis, infections, and certain cancers.
