In Vitro	Stepharine (10, 30 μM) substantially inhibits nitric oxide (NO) release as well as the mRNA and protein expression of pro-inflammatory mediators [inducible nitric oxide synthase, interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, IL-1β] in LPS-activated BV-2 cells[1]. Stepharine (10, 30 μM) inhibits LPS-induced increase of TLR4 expression, IκBα phosphorylation, and NF-κB p65 nuclear translocation[1]. Stepharine exhibits neuroprotective effects on SH-SY5Y cells cultured with LPS-treated conditioned medium. Stepharine has also shown to inhibit cholinesterase in vitro[1].
In Vivo	Stepharine (500 μg/kg) inhibited NeuN+ cells loss and Iba-1+ cells increase in the MCAO ischemic cortex[1]. Animal Model: Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rat model[1]. Dosage: 500 μg/kg (20 μL). Administration: Intranasally injected into rats 1h after MCAO. Result: Attenuated the neuronal loss induced by MCAO (MCAO+ stepharine) group.
