DescriptionAlpha-Asarone is a psychoactive compound with antidepressant-like activity in mice.(In Vitro):The results indicated that α-asarone significantly attenuated the LPS-stimulated increase in neuroinflammatory responses and suppressed pro-inflammatory cytokine production in BV-2 cells. Mechanistic study revealed that alpha-Asarone (α-Asarone) inhibited the LPS-stimulated activation via regulation of nuclear factor kappa-B by blocking degradation of inhibitor kappa B-alpha signaling in BV-2 microglial cells.(In Vivo):The present results reveal that the acute treatment of alpha-Asarone (α-Asarone) elicited biphasic responses on immobility such that the duration of the immobility time is significantly reduced at lower doses (15 and 20 mg/kg, i.p.) but increased at higher doses (50 and 100 mg/kg, i.p.) in the TST. Besides, alpha-Asarone (α-Asarone) at higher doses (50 and 100 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly decreased the spontaneous locomotor activity.

Cyclo(Pro-Pro)
Cyclo(Pro-Pro) tasted bitter.Verpacamides A-D, a sequence of C11N5 diketopiperazines relating cyclo(Pro-Pro) to cyclo(Pro-Arg), from the marine sponge Axinella vaceleti is possible biogenetic precursors of pyrrole-2-aminoimidazole alkaloids.

Oxyphyllacinol
Oxyphyllacinol has antidiarrheal activity.Oxyphyllacinol has been shown to treat dementia. Oxyphyllacinol was isolated from the S. nodiflora water fraction, while the S. nodiflora water fraction has been shown to have antioxidant and anti-aging activities, inducing mitochondrial activity and increasing ctt1 gene expression by regulating stress tolerance response.
