Absinthin
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Absinthin is a structurally unique triterpene, and is responsible for the high bitter value of wormwood. Absinthin is an agonist of the bitter taste receptor hTAS2R46, which reduces cytosolic Ca2+-rises induced by histamine by a receptor-specific mechanism mediated by hTAS2R46.

Biological Activity
Absinthin (10 μM, 60 s) inhibits histamine-induced Ca2+ increases via hTAS2R46 in airway smooth muscle (ASM) cells[3].
Absinthin (1 and 10 μM, 1 h or 18 h) shows antioxidant activity, and inhibits PMA (HY-18739) induced superoxide anion production (1 h) and iNOS expression (18 h) in BEAS-2B cells[5].
