Gnaphaliin
Gnaphaliin is a flavonoid compound that exerts antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and tracheal smooth muscle relaxant effects by inhibiting lipid peroxidation, scavenging free radicals, chelating trace elements, and reducing neutrophil infiltration. Gnaphaliin can be used in research on asthma, inflammation, and atherosclerosis.

In Vitro
Gnaphaliin (50-100 μM; 15 min) inhibits enzymatic lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomes at 100 μM, but does not inhibit non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation[2].
Gnaphaliin (100 μM; 5 min) inhibits leukotriene B4 production in Calcimycin (A23187) (HY-N6687)-stimulated rat peritoneal leukocytes by 94% (20 pg/mL) at a concentration of 100 μM[2].
Gnaphaliin (3-15 μM; up to 30 min) inhibits Cu2+-induced LDL oxidation by delaying conjugated diene formation in a dose-dependent manner, with 3 μM extending the lag phase by approximately 30 min and 15 μM completely preventing diene conjugate formation[3].
Gnaphaliin (1-30 μM; up to 3 h) inhibits Cu2+-induced TBARS formation in human LDL with an IC50 of 8.0 μM[3].
Gnaphaliin (1-20 μM) inhibits Cu2+-induced increase in human LDL electrophoretic mobility in a dose-dependent manner[3].
Gnaphaliin (1-30 μM; 150 min) inhibits Cu2+-induced TBARS formation in diluted human plasma with an IC50 > 50 μM[3].
Gnaphaliin (6-50 μM; 24 h) is not cytotoxic and does not inhibit the growth of LLC-MK2 or C6 cells, with ED50 values > 50 μM[6].

In Vivo
Gnaphaliin (50 mg/kg; s.c.; single administration 3 h before serotonin injection) is the most active among the tested flavonoids in the serotonin-induced mouse paw edema model, producing less than 40% reduction in edema[2].
Gnaphaliin (15 mg/kg; i.p.; administered immediately before and 16 h after challenge) exerts only a mild anti-edema effect in the sheep red blood cell-induced delayed-type hypersensitivity model, and this effect persists after 48 h[2].
Gnaphaliin (500-62 μg/ear; topical administration; single co-administration with Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (TPA) (HY-18739)) inhibits acute TPA-induced mouse ear edema with an ID50 of 0.210 mg/ear and an inhibition rate of 72% at 0.5 mg/ear[2].
Gnaphaliin (0.5 mg/ear; topical administration; twice daily for 4 days; on the last day, administered only in the morning) moderately reduces edema and decreases leukocyte infiltration in the chronic TPA-induced mouse ear inflammation model, but does not significantly reduce edema formation[2].
