Garcinoic acid
Garcinoic acid is an orally active anti-inflammatory agent that crosses the blood-brain barrier. Garcinoic acid also enhances efferocytosis and enzyme/receptor regulation, and selectively inhibits human COX-2, porcine α-amylase, Saccharomyces cerevisiae α-glucosidase and human DNA polymerase β (IC50=11 μM), as well as activates human PXR. Garcinoic acid enhances macrophage efferocytosis via receptors such as MerTK and LRP-1, and promotes the production of pro-resolving lipid mediators. Garcinoic acid inhibits NF-κB activation and pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion, interferes with Aβ aggregation, downregulates NLRP3 inflammasome activity, and binds to targets including CD44 and EGFR to inhibit leukemia cell proliferation. The pharmacological activities of Garcinoic acid, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and lipid metabolism-regulating effects, are widely used in studies related to various diseases including atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, type 2 diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease and viral pneumonia.

Garcinoic acid (2.5 μM; 24 h, 14-24 h) inhibits LPS-induced Cox2 and iNos protein expression in murine RAW264.7 macrophages, reducing iNos levels to 17% of LPS control at 2.5 μM[1].
Garcinoic acid (0.02-100 μM; 72 h incubation with cells, following 24 h initial cell culture) inhibits proliferation of KASUMI-1, HL-60, THP-1, RS4;11, and MOLT-4 leukemia cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 18.04 μM to 49.01 μM, showing the strongest activity against HL-60 cells[2].
Garcinoic acid (0.25-5 μM; 24 h) does not reduce the viability of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages[3].
Exogenous Lipoxin A4 (100 nM; 2 h) or Resolvin E1 (10 nM; 30 min) restores garcinoic acid (1 μM; 24 h)-enhanced efferocytosis in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages with Nrf2 silenced or HO-1 inhibited[3].
Garcinoic acid (1-50 μM; 24 h) dose-dependently upregulates PXR, CYP3A4, and MDR1 expression in HepG2 cells, with the response dependent on functional PXR[5].
Garcinoic acid (25 μM; 24 h pre-incubation, 24 h incubation with Aβ(1-42)) restores and stimulates ApoE efflux in mouse cortical astrocytes via a PPARγ-independent mechanism, up-regulates PPARγ and PXR expression, and increases expression of the PXR-regulated genes CYP4F2 and MDR1 in these cells at 25 μM[6].
Garcinoic acid (5 μM; 6 h) suppresses cleavage of GSDMD into the pyroptosis-inducing NT-GSDMD fragment in LPS/ATP-stimulated murine J774A.1 macrophages after 6 hours of total incubation[8].

Garcinoic acid (1 mg/kg; i.p.; daily; from 7 days pre-DSS exposure until study end) attenuates DSS (HY-116282C)-induced colitis in male C57BL/6 mice by restoring efferocytosis, increasing specialized pro-resolving lipid mediator levels, and activating Nrf2 signaling[3].
Garcinoic acid (5-100 mg; p.o.; single bolus) acts as a selective PXR agonist in mice, dose-dependently increasing PXR, CYP3A11, and MDR1 expression in liver and intestinal tissue at well-tolerated doses ≤25 mg, while higher doses cause mortality[5].
Garcinoic acid (5-25 mg; p.o.; single dose) dose-dependently up-regulates PPARγ, ApoE, and PXR expression in the brain of healthy C57Bl/6 mice, with significant effects observed at doses ≥5 mg[6].
Garcinoic acid (200 mg/kg; p.o.; daily; 10 days) significantly reduces amyloid β plaque number and deposition in the brain of TgCRND8 Alzheimer's disease model mice, while up-regulating ApoE and MDR1 expression[6].
