Product Information

• Name: (1S,3R,6R,7R,10R,11R)-6-[(E,2R,5R)-5,6-Dimethylhept-3-en-2-yl]-7,11-dimethyl-2-oxapentacyclo[8.8.0.01,3.03,7.011,16]octadec-15-ene-1 4,17-dione
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: (E)-Parthenolide is a sesquiterpene lactone, which is a naturally occurring organic compound often extracted from plants such as feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium). This compound exerts its effects primarily through the modulation of NF-kB signaling pathways, which play crucial roles in the regulation of immune responses, cell proliferation, and survival. By inhibiting NF-kB, (E)-Parthenolide can interfere with the expression of genes that promote cell growth and inflammation. This action makes it a compound of interest in cancer research, particularly as a potential therapeutic agent that targets cancer stem cells and reduces chemoresistance. Its applications extend to studying its efficacy in inhibiting tumor growth and inducing apoptosis in various cancer cell lines. Moreover, due to its natural source, (E)-Parthenolide is also being explored for its potential as an anti-inflammatory agent in the treatment of inflammatory conditions.
