Monasfluore A
Monasfluore A is an azaphenanthrenone derivative with antioxidant activity. Monasfluore A inhibits LPS-induced nitric oxide production. Monasfluore A scavenges DPPH and superoxide anion free radicals. Monasfluore A exerts cellular antioxidant activity in oxidatively damaged colon adenocarcinoma cells. Monasfluore A shows no antiproliferative effect on human laryngeal cancer cells and colon adenocarcinoma cells.

Biological Activity
Monasfluore A (compound 5) (6.25-100 μg/mL; 3 days) exhibits no anti-proliferative activity against human laryngeal carcinoma (HEp-2) cells and human colon adenocarcinoma (WiDr) cells, with an IC50 > 100 μg/mL for both cell lines[1].
Monasfluore A (5-20 μg/mL; 24 h) significantly and dose-dependently inhibits Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (HY-D1056)-induced nitric oxide production in murine macrophage (RAW 264.7) cells with an IC50 of 12.8 μg/mL, while maintaining high cell viability[1].
Monasfluore A (0.02-0.10 mg/mL; 0.2-18 mg/mL; 0-5 mg/mL), purified from functional Qu, shows concentration-dependent in vitro antioxidant activity via DPPH scavenging, superoxide anion scavenging, and yolk lipoprotein peroxidation inhibition[2].
