Arglabin is a sesquiterpene γ-lactone originally isolated from A. glabella that has anticancer and anti-inflammatory activities.{45407} It inhibits the growth of LS-180, SSC-4, HeLa, MCF-7, and HL-60 cancer cells (IC50s = 20, 10, 20, 20, and 50 µM, respectively).{45408} Arglabin reduces tumor growth in an SCC-4 mouse xenograft model when administered at a dose of 40 µg/g. It is a selective inhibitor of the NLRP3 inflammasome over the NLRP1, AIM2, and NLRC4 inflammasomes when used at a concentration of 50 nM.{45407} Arglabin (50 nM) reduces increases in protein levels of NLRP3, caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18 induced by cholesterol crystals in LPS-primed mouse peritoneal macrophages. It decreases plasma levels of IL-1β, oxidized LDL autoantibodies, total cholesterol, and triglycerides, and reduces the size of atherosclerotic lesions in the aorta of mice fed a high-fat diet when administered at a dose of 2.5 ng/g.
