Peucedanocoumarin III

Peucedanocoumarin Ⅲ can induce rice resistance to blast disease.

Peucedanocoumarin III is an inhibitor of (alpha)-synuclein and Huntington protein aggregates that enhances the clearance of nuclear and cytoplasmic β23 aggregates and prevents cytotoxicity induced by disease-associated proteins (i.e., mutant Huntington proteins and α-synuclein). Peucedanocoumarin III may be used in Parkinson's disease research[1].
