General description

Atractylenolide I is one of the active ingredients of Rhizoma Atractylodes macrocephala which is obtained from the dried root and stem of Atractylodes Macrocephala Koidz. It is a sesquiterpene compound of hydrophobic nature.

Application

Atractylenolide I is a phytochemical that may be used to study its anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenesis activities. Atractylenolide I may be used and studied as a postitive modulator of GABA-induced chloride currents I(GABA) and as an inhibitor of aromatases. Atractylenolide I may be used as a reference material in assays to detect its presence in plant root extracts and biological milieu such as plasma.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Atractylenolide I has been reported to have an anti-inflammatory activity due to its inhibitory effect on tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and the production of nitric oxide (NO). It also shows anti-cancer nature, thereby being used in the management of gastric cancer cachexia symptoms. Additionally, it has anti-angiogenic, pro-oxidative and cytotoxic characteristics.
Phytochemical from Traditional Chinese Medicine herbal preparations. Atractylenolide I is an anti-inflammatory that is reported to inhibit angiogenesis.

Paclitaxel, a known TLR4 ligand, leads to activation of TLR4/MyD88-dependent pathway that mediates chemoresistance and tumor progression in epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC). Atractylenolide-I (AO-I), a novel TLR4-antagonizing agent, inhibits TLR4 signaling by interfering with the binding of LPS or paclitaxel

Ten compounds were isolated from the dichloromethane extract of Atractylodes macrocephala and their aromatase inhibiting activities were tested using an in vitro fluorescent-based aromatase assay. The results indicated that atractylenolide I, atractylenolide II and atractylenolide III had inhibition ratios of

A new high-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was developed for quantitative analysis of atractylenolide I in rat plasma using buspirone as internal standard (I.S.). Rat plasma samples were deproteined with methanol and acetonitrile (1:1, v/v). Atractylenolide I and I.S.

We determined the therapeutic efficacy of atractylenolide I (ATR), extracted from largehead atractylodes rhizome, in managing gastric cancer cachexia (GCC), and interpreted its probable pharmacological mechanism via investigating tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and proteolysis-inducing factor

The dried rhizome of Bai Zhu (Atractylodes ovata) is widely used as a Chinese herbal medicine. Two sesquiterpenolides of similar structures (atractylenolide I, AT-I; atractylenolide III, AT-III) were isolated from dried rhizome of Atractylodes ovata. Incubation of AT-I with recombinant
