    Product Description

    Atractylodin is a polyethylene alkyne that has been found in A. lancea and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4 It inhibits N-acylethanolamine acid amidase (NAAA; IC50 = 2.81 µM for the human enzyme) and increases levels of the endocannabinoids palmitoyl ethanolamide (Item No. 90350) and oleoyl ethanolamide (Item No. 90265) in LPS-stimulated BV-2 microglial cells when used at a concentration of 10 µM.1 Atractylodin is cytotoxic to CL-6 and HuCC-T1 cholangiocarcinoma cells (IC50s = 41.66 and 38.78 µM, respectively).2 Atractylodin (10 mg/kg) increases the gastric emptying rate in mice, an effect that can be blocked by the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R) antagonist (D-Lys3)-GHRP-6 (Item No. 36862).3 It decreases pulmonary edema in a mouse model of LPS-induced acute lung injury when administered at doses of 40 and 80 mg/kg.4
