Dendrocandin U
Dendrocandin U is a bibenzyl compound found in Dendrobium officinale that exhibits anti-inflammatory activity and α-glucosidase inhibitory effect (IC50 = 9.46 mM). Dendrocandin U inhibits the expression of TLR4 and MyD88 in the TLR4/MyD88/NF-kB pathway, suppresses the phosphorylation of NF-kB p65 and I-kBα, and blocks the nuclear translocation of NF-kB p65. Dendrocandin U inhibits M1 polarization, NO secretion, and TNF-α release in alveolar macrophages, and reduces inflammatory morphological changes in macrophages. Dendrocandin U promotes neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells. Dendrocandin U can be used for research on inflammation-related diseases and type 2 diabetes.

In Vitro
Dendrocandin U (compound 1) (0.01-80 μM; 24 h) shows no cytotoxicity against MH-S cells at concentrations below 20 μM[1].
Dendrocandin U (0.01-20 μM; 2 h pre-incubation) inhibits NO secretion in LPS/IFN-γ-stimulated MH-S cells[1].
Dendrocandin U (5-20 μM; 2 h pre-incubation) inhibits TNF-α release in LPS/IFN-γ-stimulated MH-S cells at 10 μM[1].
Dendrocandin U (20 μM; 2 h pre-incubation) attenuates M1-like morphological changes in LPS/IFN-γ-stimulated MH-S cells; inhibits the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway and nuclear translocation of p-NF-κB p65 in stimulated MH-S cells[1].
Dendrocandin U (10-20 μM; 2 h pre-incubation) inhibits the expression of M1 markers CD86 and iNOS in stimulated MH-S cells[1].
Dendrocandin U (compound 11) is a weak α-glucosidase inhibitor with an IC50 of 9.46 mM[2].
Dendrocandin U (compound 2) (10 μM; 72 h) shows weak neurite outgrowth-promoting activity in PC12 cells, with a differentiation rate of 9.46%[3].
