    Product Description

    N-trans-Feruloyltyramine is a phenolic amide originally isolated from S. melongena that has diverse biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and antiproliferative properties.1 It decreases nitric oxide (NO) production (IC50 = 17.36 µM) and inducible NO synthase (iNOS) activity and increases NO scavenging without inducing cytotoxicity in LPS-stimulated BV-2 cells.2 It also scavenges 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH; Item No. 14805) radicals in TLC autographic and spectrophotometric assays.3 N-trans-Feruloyltyramine inhibits proliferation of HeLa and L929 cells by 72.2 and 22%, respectively, when used at a concentration of 30 µg/ml.4

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
