일반 설명Piperlongumine is an alkaloid, which is extracted from Piper longum Linn. It exhibits anti-atherosclerotic, anxiolytic, antidiabetic, antidepressant, antibacterial, anti-platelet, aggregation, anxiolytic and anti-inflammatory properties. Piperlongumine prevents the production of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6. It blocks the activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) against proinflammatory responses. Piperlongumine inhibits plaque formation and inhibits vascular smooth muscle cell migration. It is used to treat cough, respiratory infections and stomach-ache.
