Biological Activity

Arzanol is a polyphenol compound extracted from the plant Helichrysum italicum which grows in the Mediterranean area. Arzanol is known for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities. The anti-inflammatory activity was verified in an in-vivo r at model and was found to suppress the inflammatory response of the carrageenan-induced pleurisy. Moreover it was found to have an anti-HIV-1 activity. Arzanol inhibits COX-2-derived prostaglandin synthase-1 (mPGES-1) Inhibitor in-vitro, in human stimulated monocytes.
Arzanol inhibits the activation of inflammatory transcription factor NFKB, HIV replication in T cells, releases of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α,and biosynthesis of PGE2 by potentially inhibiting the mPGES-1 enzyme.', 'Arzanol is known for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities.

Arzanol inhibits the activation of inflammatory transcription factor nuclear factor-KB (NF-KB), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) replication in T cells, releases of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and biosynthesis of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) by potentially inhibiting the mPGES-1 enzyme. It also possesses antioxidant and cytotoxic activity.
