Soluble in methanol, ethanol, DMSO and other organic solvents, derived from Rhizoma et Radix Notopterygii.
ChEBI: Osthenol is a hydroxycoumarin that is umbelliferone in which the hydrogen at position 8 has been replaced by a prenyl group.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.
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.
