5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-3-hydroxy-2-isopropyl-8,8-dimethyl-1,4-phenanthrenedione

Deoxyneocryptotanshinone, a natural tanshinone, is a high affinity BACE1 (Beta-secretase) inhibitor with an IC50 value of 11.53 μM. Deoxyneocryptotanshinone shows a promising dose-dependent inhibition of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) with an IC50 value of 133.5 μM. Deoxyneocryptotanshinone can be used for Alzheimer's disease research[1][2].
