| Bioactivity | Alpha-Asarone is one of the main psychoactive compounds, and possesses an antidepressant-like activity in mice.IC50 value:Target:In vitro: The results indicated that α-asarone significantly attenuated the LPS-stimulated increase in neuroinflammatory responses and suppressed pro-inflammatory cytokine production in BV-2 cells. Mechanistic study revealed that α-asarone?inhibited the LPS-stimulated activation via regulation of nuclear factor kappa-B by blocking degradation of inhibitor kappa B-alpha signaling in BV-2 microglial cells. [2]In vivo: The present results reveal that the acute treatment of α-asarone elicited biphasic responses on immobility such that the duration of the immobility time is significantly reduced at lower doses (15 and 20 mg/kg, i.p.) but increased at higher doses (50 and 100 mg/kg, i.p.) in the TST. Besides, α-asarone at higher doses (50 and 100 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly decreased the spontaneous locomotor activity.[1] Related Catalog Signaling Pathways >> Membrane Transporter/Ion Channel >> GABA Receptor Signaling Pathways >> Neuronal Signaling >> GABA Receptor Research Areas >> Neurological Disease Natural Products >> Phenylpropanoids References [1].
