Ligusticum cycloprolactam
Ligusticum cycloprolactam is a potent, orally active, and CNS-penetrant TLR4/NF-κB inhibitor, exhibiting anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective activity. Ligusticum cycloprolactam reduces FPR1 expression, inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome, TLR4/NF-κB, hepatic MAPK and TGF-β signaling, and selectively activates hepatic FXR. Ligusticum cycloprolactam attenuates pro-inflammatory mediator production, enhances anti-inflammatory cytokine secretion, regulates renal uric acid transporters, and preserves intestinal microbiota composition. Ligusticum cycloprolactam can be used for the research of ischemic stroke, hyperuricemic nephropathy, neuroinflammation, and metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease.
