Cedrol
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Cedrol is a potent competitive inhibitor of cytochrome P-450(CYP) enzyme. Cedrol plays an anticancer role by inducing cell cycle arrest and Caspase-dependent apoptosis. Cedrol acts as a neutrophil agonist that can desensitize cells to subsequent stimulation of N-formyl peptides. Cedrol prevents neuropathic pain caused by chronic contractile injury by inhibiting oxidative stress and inflammation. In addition, Cedrol has antibacterial, hair loss prevention and anti-anxiety properties.

Cedrol (0-450 μM; 24-72 h) inhibits HT-29 and CT-26 cell proliferation in a dose - and time-dependent manner, with IC50 values of 138.91 and 92.46 µM, respectively[4].
Cedrol (0-225 μM; 0-48 h) induces cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 phase by regulating the expression of cell cycle regulators CDK4 and cyclin D1 and apoptosis through both exogenous (FasL/caspase-8) and endogenous (Bax/caspase-9) pathways in HT-29 and CT-26 cells[4].
Cedrol (0-180 µM; 48 h) combined with 5-FU (HY-90006) significantly decreases HT-29 cell viability[4].
