Biological Activity
target: M. tuberculosis DNA gyrase[1], SMAD-3 phosphorylation[2], H+ K+-ATPase activity.[3] IC50: 65.01 μg/ml ( H+ K+-ATPase ) [3]
In vitro: binding of Chebulinic acid causes displacement of catalytic Tyr129 away from its target DNA-phosphate molecule. [1] Chebulinic acid reduce the expression and activity of MMP-2 at an ED50 value of 100 μM. EMT (Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition) is found to be induced in ARPE-19 cells, through SMAD-3 phosphorylation and it is inhibited by CA. [2] chebulinic acid significantly inhibited H+ K+-ATPase activity in vitrowith IC50 of 65.01 μg/ml. [3]

The effects of Chebulagic acid and chebulinic acid inhibited the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway in CoV2-SP-induced A549 cells. A549 cells were pre-treated with chebulagic acid and Chebulinic acid (0–20 µg/mL) for 24 h. Then, the cells were exposed to CoV2-SP (100 ng/mL) for 3 h. The inhibitory effects of chebulagic acid and chebulinic acid on the expression of NLRP3, ASC, and pro-caspase-1 (p50) and cleaved-caspase-1 (p20) proteins in A549 cells are displayed in western blot.
