Norbergenin
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Norbergenin is a polyphenolic isocoumarin derivative. Norbergenin acts as a non-competitive inhibitor of bovine adrenal tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) with a Ki value of 69.6 μM. Norbergenin inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory responses in macrophages by suppressing the activation of NF-κB, MAPK and STAT3, as well as blocking metabolic reprogramming. Norbergenin inhibits aluminum chloride-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis and restores neurocognitive parameters. Norbergenin scavenges ROS through multiple mechanisms and protects cell membranes from lipid peroxidation damage. Norbergenin can be used in research related to Alzheimer's disease, peptic ulcer and arthritis.

Biological Activity
Norbergenin (5-50 μM; 25 h) dose-dependently inhibits LPS (HY-D1056)-induced NO production in iBMDMs at 24 h post-stimulation[2].
Norbergenin (5-50 μM; 25 h) dose-dependently inhibits LPS-induced TNFα production in iBMDMs at 24 h post-stimulation[2].
Norbergenin (50 μM; 2-25 h) inhibits LPS-induced mRNA expression of *Il1b*, *Tnfa*, *Il6* and *Nos2* in iBMDM and BMDM[2].
Norbergenin (5-50 μM; 5-9 h) dose-dependently inhibits LPS-induced activation of NF-κB, STAT3 and MAPK (p38, JNK, ERK) signaling pathways, and reduces the protein levels of pro-IL1β, iNOS and TLR2 in stimulated iBMDMs at 4 h or 8 h[2].
Norbergenin (5-50 μM; 9 h) dose-dependently inhibits LPS-induced glycolysis and maintains mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) in iBMDMs at 8 h post-stimulation[2].
Norbergenin (50 μM; 9 h) alters the proteome profile of iBMDMs stimulated with LPS for 8 h, downregulates proteins related to inflammatory pathways and upregulates proteins related to oxidative phosphorylation, thereby restoring its profile to a state similar to that of the unstimulated control group[2].
Norbergenin (50 μM; 9 h) reverses LPS-induced metabolic reprogramming in iBMDMs after 8 hours, restoring normal activity of glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and arginine metabolism pathways[2].
