Scoparone is a coumarin that has been found in A. capillaris and has diverse biological activities.{56223,56224,56226,56227,56225} It inhibits angiotensin II-induced extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and cell proliferation and reduces levels of collagen I and fibronectin in isolated primary neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts when used at concentrations ranging from 1 to 10 µM.{56223} Scoparone suppresses PDGF-BB-induced rat aortic smooth muscle cell (RASMC) migration and wound healing in a scratch assay.{56224} In vivo, scoparone (3.5 mg/kg) reduces vascular neointima formation in a rat model of carotid artery balloon injury. Scoparone (80 mg/kg) reduces hepatocyte apoptosis, liver fibrosis, serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and hepatic triglyceride levels in a mouse model of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) induced by a methionine- and choline-deficient (MCD) diet.{56226} It reduces ulcer lesion area in a rat model of HCl- and ethanol-induced gastric ulcers.{56227} Scoparone also inhibits passive cutaneous anaphylaxis in rats.{56225}

Description

A coumarin with diverse biological activities; inhibits angiotensin II-induced ECM remodeling and cell proliferation and reduces levels of collagen I and fibronectin in isolated primary neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts from 1-10 µM; suppresses PDGF-BB-induced RASMC migration and wound healing in a scratch assay; reduces vascular neointima formation in a rat model of carotid artery balloon injury at 3.5 mg/kg; reduces hepatocyte apoptosis, liver fibrosis, serum levels of ALT and AST, and hepatic triglyceride levels in a mouse model of MCD-induced NASH; reduces ulcer lesion area in a rat model of HCl- and ethanol-induced gastric ulcers; inhibits passive cutaneous anaphylaxis in rats
