Product Information

• Name: Nortanshinone
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Nortanshinone is a diterpene compound, which is a type of organic molecule composed of four isoprene units. It is derived from the roots of the plant Salvia miltiorrhiza, commonly known as Danshen, which is traditionally used in Chinese medicine. The mode of action of nortanshinone involves modulating various signaling pathways, including those associated with inflammation and apoptosis. It has been shown to inhibit the activity of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), a protein complex that plays a critical role in regulating immune response and cell survival.
