Biological Activity

[Description]:

Hypophyllanthin is a major lignan in Phyllanthus spp, with strong anti-inflammatory activity. Hypophyllanthin directly inhibits P-glycoprotein (P-gp) activity and did not interfere with multidrug resistance protein 2 (MRP2) activity[1][2].

Research Areas >> Inflammation/Immunology

Signaling Pathways >> Membrane Transporter/Ion Channel >> P-glycoprotein

[Target]

P-gp[2]

[In Vitro]

Hypophyllanthin down-regulates COX-2, TNF-α, and IL-1β gene expressions in U937 macrophages by interfering with the activation of NF-κB, MAPKs, and Akt[1].
