DescriptionSofalcone is a synthetic antiulcer agent related to sophoradin, the active principle of the Chinese medicinal plant, Sophora subprostata. It is suggested to act via a strengthening of the mucosal barrier through an increase in blood flow and stimulation of the synthesis of sulfated mucopolysaccharides.
UsesSofalcone is an anti-ulcer chalcone derivative. It blocks inflammation by suppressing the production of nitric oxide, TNF-α, and MCP-1 while inducing the expression of heme oxygenase-1 when used at 10-20 μM. Sofalcone (20-50 μM) induces VEGF expression in gastric epithelial cells and promotes gastric ulcer healing following eradication therapy for H. pylori.[Cayman Chemical]
UsesSofalcone is a substituted chalcone with anti-ulcer activity.

DefinitionChEBI: Sofalcone is a member of the class of chalcones that is benzene in which the hydrogens at positions 1,2 and 5 are replaced by carboxymethoxy, (1E)-1-{4-[(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)oxy]phenyl}-3-oxoprop-1-en-3-yl, and (3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)oxy groups, respectively. It is a gastrointestinal drug currently used for treatment of gastritis and gastric ulcers in Japan and South Korea. It has a role as an anti-ulcer drug, a gastrointestinal drug, a plant metabolite and an antibacterial agent. It is an aromatic ether, a monocarboxylic acid and a member of chalcones.
