Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Soluble in methanol, ethanol, DMSO and other organic solvents, derived from Rhizoma et Radix Notopterygii.

Uses

Osthenol (Ostenol), a prenylated coumarin isolated from the dried roots of Angelica pubescens, is selective, reversible, and competitive human monoamine oxidase-A (hMAO-A) inhibitor (Ki=0.26 μM). Osthenol potently inhibits recombinant hMAO-A with an IC50 of 0.74 μM and shows a high selectivity index for hMAO-A versus hMAO-B[1].

Definition

ChEBI: Osthenol is a hydroxycoumarin that is umbelliferone in which the hydrogen at position 8 has been replaced by a prenyl group. It has a role as a plant metabolite and an antifungal agent. It is functionally related to an umbelliferone.

Biological Activity

Ostenol (Ostenol), a preacylated coumarin isolated from the dried roots of Ostonia, is a reversible, selective and competitive inhibitor of human monoamine oxidase-A (hMAO-A) (Ki=0.26 μM) . Oshenol has a potential selective inhibitory effect on recombinant hMAO-A with IC50 of 0.74 μM, showing a high selectivity index for hMAO-A and hMAO-B.

IC 50

hMAO-A: 0.26 μM (Ki); hMAO-A: 0.74 μM (IC₅₀)
