Description
A phthalide with diverse biological activities; inhibits autophagy and restores Nurr77 expression and tamoxifen sensitivity in tamoxifen-resistant MCF-7 cells; increases cerebral expression of Nrf2 and HO-1 and reduces infarct volume and neuronal loss in a rat model of cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury from 8-32 mg/kg; decreases mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia in a rat model of CFA-induced inflammatory pain; restores gait coordination, reduces spinal cord iNOS mRNA expression, and inhibits production of PGE2, TNF-α, and IL-1β in a rat model of spinal cord injury
