Uses
Hamaudol is a chromone isolated from Saposhnikovia divaricata. Hamaudol shows significant inhibitory activity on cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2 activities with IC50 values of 0.30, 0.57 mM, respectively, and has potent analgesia and anti-inflammary effects[1][2].
Definition
ChEBI: Hamaudol is a member of chromenes.
Biological Activity
Hamaudol is a chromone isolated from Saposhnikovia divaricata. It has obvious inhibitory ability on the activities of cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2 with IC50 values of 0.30 and 0.57 mM, respectively, and has potent analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects.
in vivo
Hamaudol (Compound 7) increases the potency to exhibit a potent analgesia at doses of 1, 5 and 10 mg/kg in mice, although it do not show clear dose dependency.
