General description

A naturally occurring, cell-permeable diterpene with anti-inflammatory properties. Acts as a selective and direct inhibitor of IκB kinase (IC50 = 24 µM) in TNF-α stimulated HeLa cells thereby prevents NF-κB activation. Also inhibits the production of nitric oxide in IL-1β or IL-17 stimulated normal human chondrocytes. Does not inhibit the activities of JNK and p38MAPK. Reported to be effective against murine blood and liver stages of malarial parasites. Inhibits VEGF-induced cell proliferation in vitro (IC50 = 28.6 µM) and bFGF-induced angiogenesis in the chick chorioallantoic membrane (IC50 = 10 µM).
