Pharmacology

MeSH Pharmacological Classification · 3 items

Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.

Naturally occurring or synthetic substances that inhibit or retard oxidation reactions. They counteract the damaging effects of oxidation in animal tissues.

Compounds or agents that combine with an enzyme in such a manner as to prevent the normal substrate-enzyme combination and the catalytic reaction.

General Manufacturing InformationEthanone, 1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-: ACTIVE
Applications · 3 items

Uses4'-Hydroxy-3'-methoxyacetophenone is used as an inhibitor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase, which is an enzyme responsible for reactive oxygen species production. It is also useful in the treatment of various inflammatory diseases and atherosclerosis. Further, it shows an anti-inflammatory activity and improves endothelial function by reducing oxidative stress. In addition to this, it is used for studying nitric oxide regulated processes in plants.

UsesAcetovanillone is an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase (an enzyme responsible for reactive oxygen species production) and is useful in the treatment of various inflammatory diseases.

General DescriptionAcetovanillone is an aromatic plant ketone, which is a selective inhibitor of NADPH oxidase. It is mainly secreted in the urine of mammals as the corresponding glucuronide conjugate.
