Application

Emodin: An Anthraquinone with a Wide Spectrum of Pharmacological Properties

Emodin is a natural occurring anthraquinone present in the roots and barks of numerous plants, molds, and lichens, and an active ingredient of various Chinese medicinal herbs. It has been reported that emodin has a wide spectrum of pharmacological properties, including diuretic, vasorelaxant, anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-ulcerogenic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer effects.

Application

Emodin: A Naturally Occurring Anthraquinone with Anti-Cancer and Anti-Inflammatory Activities

Emodin is a naturally occurring anthraquinone found in a variety of plants (e.g., rhubarb) used in traditional Chinese medicine.^1,2) Purified emodin has been reported to possess diverse effects, including anti-oxidation, anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory activities. Emodin is a pleiotropic molecule capable of interacting with several major molecular targets including, NF-κB, casein kinase II, HER2/neu, HIF-1α, AKT/mTOR, STAT3, CXCR4, topoisomerase II, p53, p21, and androgen receptors which are involved in inflammation and cancer.^2-4) (The product is for research purpose only.)
