Description: TRPC5 inhibitor; also induces autophagy
Chemical Name: 3,5,7-Trihydroxy-2-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one
Purity: ≥98% (HPLC)
Biological Activity for Galangin
Galangin is a TRPC5 inhibitor. Inhibits Ca2+ entry into TRPC5 expressing cells. Inhibits LPS-induced expression of TNFα, IL-6, IL-1β, COX2 and iNOS, in vitro. Attenuates microglial activation, loss of dopaminergic neurons and motor dysfunction in a LPS-induced rat model of Parkinson's disease. Also inhibits proliferation in breast cancer cell lines. Induces autophagy. Also displays antiviral activity against HSV-1, coxsackie B virus type 1, adenovirus type 31 and reovirus.
