| Application: | Cardamonin has been used as a glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) inhibitor to study its effects on β-catenin loss and gain-of-function in human preimplantation embryos. |
| Application: | Cardamonin has been used as a standard in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to analyze phenolic compounds in acacia honey samples. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Cardamonin is a calchone from Aplinia species (zingiberaceous plant species). |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Cardamonin is a calchone from Aplinia species (zingiberaceous plant species). Cardamonin inhibits pigmentation in melanocytes through suppression of Wnt/b-catenin signaling pathway. Cardamonin suppressed Wnt/b-catenin signaling by a mechanism involving proteasome-mediated degradation of b-catenin (GSK-3b-independent pathway). Research has shown that Cardamonin possesses anti-inflammatory activity via suppression of NF-kB nuclear translocation and Ik-Ba phosphorylation. |
