Butein is a plant polyphenol that is classified as a chalcone, due to the propenone linkage between the phenol groups. Like other polyphenols, butein is a potent antioxidant and affects the numerous pathways modulated by oxidant tone, including inflammation, cancer, and immune response.{25061,25058,25057} It inhibits 5-lipoxygenase, the enoyl-acyl-carrier protein reductase of P. falciparum, angiotensin-converting enzyme, and Src kinase (IC50 or Ki values of 0.01, 2.97, 0.73, and 65 μM, respectively).{25060,25062,25056,25063} Butein is also a sirtuin activator, increasing trichostatin A (Item No. 89730)-insensitive deacetylase activity.{12143,20124}

    CAY10512 – 500 mg

    The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) regulates the expression of numerous genes involved in immunity and inflammation, cellular stress responses, growth, and apoptosis. Resveratrol, a polyphenolic trans-stilbene, is a known inhibitor of the activation of NF-κB and exhibits activity against a wide variety of cancer cells. CAY10512 is a substituted trans-stilbene analog of resveratrol that is 100-fold more potent as measured by antioxidant activity. The IC50 value for inhibition of TNFα-induced activation of NF-κB by CAY10512 is 0.15 µM compared to 20 µM by resveratrol.{14545}
