Albaconol
Albaconol is a prenylresorcinol compound. Albaconol is isolated from the mushroom A. confluens. Albaconol inhibits NF-κB and DNA topoisomerase II, and induces Apoptosis. Albaconol inhibits IκB-α phosphorylation and p65 nuclear translocation, enhances SOCS1 expression, reduces the production of proinflammatory cytokines and NO, and suppresses the expression of iNOS, MHC-II and co-stimulatory molecules. Albaconol acts as a weak antagonist of hVR1 and rVR1, with IC50 values of 17 µM and 5.5 µM, respectively. Albaconol induces tracheal contraction and desensitization. Albaconol inhibits the growth of tumor cells. Albaconol can be used in pain-related research.

Albaconol (0.5-20 μg/mL; 8-53 h) inhibits proliferation of RAW264.7 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner with an IC50 of 5.55 μg/mL[1].
Albaconol (2.5-7.5 μg/mL; 24 h) at 7.5 μg/mL induces apoptosis of RAW264.7 cells, while concentrations of 2.5 μg/mL and 5.0 μg/mL do not cause significant apoptosis[1].
Albaconol (5.0 μg/mL; 24 h pretreatment, followed by 24 h LPS stimulation) inhibits TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 mRNA expression in both unstimulated and LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells[1].
Albaconol (2.5-5.0 μg/mL; 24 h pretreatment, followed by 24 h LPS stimulation) at 5.0 μg/mL inhibits LPS-induced TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 production in RAW264.7 cells, while 2.5 μg/mL albaconol only inhibits LPS-induced IL-1β production[1].
Albaconol (2.5-5.0 μg/mL; 24 h pretreatment, followed by 12-24 h LPS stimulation) at 5.0 μg/mL inhibits LPS-induced iNOS expression and NO production in RAW264.7 cells, while 2.5 μg/mL albaconol has no effect on these endpoints[1].
Albaconol (2.5-50 μg/mL; 24 h) at concentrations ≤10 μg/mL does not induce apoptosis/necrosis in mouse bone marrow-derived CD11c+ dendritic cells, while higher concentrations (20 μg/mL, 50 μg/mL) do trigger apoptotic/necrotic cell death[2].
Albaconol (3.0 μg/mL; 12 h pretreatment, 24 h LPS stimulation) inhibits LPS-induced upregulation of MHC-II (Ia), CD40, CD80, and CD86 expression in mouse bone marrow-derived CD11c+ dendritic cells[2].
Albaconol (up to 50 µM) exhibits no agonistic activity on hVR1-expressing recombinant CHO cells at concentrations up to 50 µM[3].
Albaconol acts as a weak antagonist of hVR1 in hVR1-expressing recombinant CHO cells, with an IC50 of 17 µM[3].
Albaconol acts as a weak antagonist of rVR1, with an IC50 of 5.5 µM, and exhibits no agonistic activity on rVR1[3].
