Beschreibung

General description

A cell-permeable natural dietary compound reported to have anti-carcinogenic and anti-inflammatory properties. A selective, non-competitive inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase (ID₅₀ = 3.7 µM). Inhibits Cu²⁺-induced LDL oxidation in the initiation phase but acts as a prooxidant in the propagation phase. An effective irreversible inhibitor of glutathione S-transferases and a non-competitive inhibitor of xanthine oxidase.
