Hexacosyl (E)-ferulate displays significant antioxidant activity in the DPPH assay (RC50 = 0.0976 mg mL). It also might be a chemotaxonomic marker in the genus Echinops.
Cristacarpin exhibits moderate but selective activity towards DNA repair-deficient yeast mutants. It promotes endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, leading to sub-lethal reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and which eventually terminates by triggering s
Isoerysenegalensein E shows anti-estrogenic activity comparable to that of 4-hydroxytamoxifen, a typical estrogen receptor antagonist. It shows significant cytotoxicity against HL-60 cells, it induces apoptosis in HL-60 cells through activation of the cas
Erythrabyssin II actives against several strains of Staphylococcus and Streptococcus with an MIC range of 0.78-1.56 microg/ml. It inhibits bacterial neuraminidase in a dose-dependent manner with significant inhibition (IC(50)=0.09-3.25 μM).
Octacosyl ferulate inhibits the phosphorylation of histon III-S by PK-C in a concentration dependent manner. It markedly inhibits the inflammatory activity induced by TPA in mice.
