Biological Activity: Methylnissolin (Astrapterocarpan) is an osteoclast inhibitor with anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and antioxidant activities. Methylnissolin downregulates the activation of the MAPK and PI3K/AKT pathways, inhibits the phosphorylation of MAPK1 and AKT1, and blocks PDGF-BB-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2. Methylnissolin reduces the expression and secretion of proinflammatory mediators, decreases intracellular ROS levels, upregulates antioxidant enzymes, and downregulates osteoclastogenesis markers. Methylnissolin is applicable to research related to ischemic stroke, osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases, skin aging, etc.[1][2][3][4]
