Brickellin
Brickellin is an antioxidant agent that can be isolated from Varronia curassavica Jacq.. Brickellin inhibits advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formation, protein crosslinking, and oxidative damage to proteins. Brickellin can be used for the research of diabetes.

Brickellin (72 h) does not significantly inhibit the growth of KB cells in vitro, with an ED50 value >25 μg/mL[1].
Brickellin (0.031-0.125 mM; 8 days) significantly inhibits methylglyoxal-induced fluorescent advanced glycation end-product formation in bovine serum albumin in a concentration-dependent manner, with 0.125 mM brickellin reducing AGE formation by 60.8% on day 8[2].
Brickellin (0.031-0.125 mM; 8 days) significantly reduces methylglyoxal-induced formation of dityrosine, N′-formylkynurenine, and kynurenine oxidation markers in bovine serum albumin in a concentration-dependent manner[2].
Brickellin (0.031-0.125 mM; 8 days) inhibits methylglyoxal-induced protein carbonyl formation in bovine serum albumin after 8 days of incubation[2].
Brickellin binds strongly to the SARS-CoV-2 Mpro predicted allosteric site[3].
