Study on Components with Neuroinflammation Inhibitory Activities from Croton tiglium L. var. xiaopadou.

Summary

Researchers found a new compound, along with 33 others, in the stems of a plant called Croton tiglium L. var. xiaopadou. They tested the compounds on microglia, a type of cell in the brain related to inflammation, and found that 13 of the compounds reduced inflammation. Four of the compounds, specifically 10, 16, 18, and 21, were particularly effective and had a similar effect as a positive control drug called minocycline. These findings suggest that these compounds could potentially be used to treat brain inflammation in the future.
