| Application: | Parthenolide has been used: • in the crystallization with vasohibin 1 (VASH1) to study tubulin detyrosination inhibition • as an inhibitor of nuclear factor κ-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) and signal transduction and activation of transcription (STAT) inhibitor to study its effects on the cytoadhesion of CD36-binding Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes (IECD36) • as a lipophilic agent to study its effects on the production of interleukin?13 and interferon?γ by peripheral blood-derived CD8+ T cells |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Anti-inflammatory agent that inhibits NF-κB activation. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Parthenolide is a sesquiterpene lactone present abundantly in the leaves and flowers of Tanacetum parthenium. It exhibits anti-cancer properties for the treatment of invasive cancers. Parthenolide exhibits therapeutic effects against inflammation and migraine. It plays a role in signal transduction and activation of transcription (STAT)-inhibition-mediate |
| Other Notes: | Sesquiterpene lactone found in feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium) and other plants. |
