Description

Sclerotiorin is a natural product isolated primarily from Penicillium species. It inhibits soybean lipoxygenase-1 with an IC50 value of 4.2 µM.1 Sclerotiorin also exhibits a number of other activities including inhibition of cholesterol ester transfer protein (IC50 = 19.4 µM),2, inhibition of Grb2-Shc interaction (IC50 = 22 µM),3, and antagonism of endothelin receptors (IC50 = 114 and 152 µM for human ETA and ETB, respectively).4
