Applications & Uses

Description

Costunolide is a germacranolide sesquiterpene lactone extracted from costus oil. With alantolactone and dehydrocostuslactone, it is a component of lactone mix used to elicit reactions in Compositae-sensitive patients. An erythema-multiform-like occupational contact dermatitis case occurred in a chemistry student after accidental exposure to costus oil (CJ Le Coz & JP Lepoittevin, unpublished results).

Uses

Costunolide is the oil extracted from Saussurea lappa is used in perfumery and in the Orient for all kinds of diseases.

Uses

(+)-Costunolide is an inhibitor of osteoclast differentiation, acting as an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant agent. It is a sesquiterpene lactone which mediates apoptosis.

General Description

Costunolide has anti-ulcer and antipyretic properties. It inhibits the cellular proliferation of melanin, human lamin-B by farnesyl-protein transferase (FPTase) and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (hPTP1B). Costunolide has strong larvicidal activity against A.albopictus. It inhibits the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase and DNA-binding activity of nuclear factor kappa B subunit (NF-κB). It might function as a natural herbicide.
