trans-Piceatannol

Piceatannol is a selective inhibitor of protein tyrosine kinase Syk. It could inhibit ICa,L, Ito, IKr, Ca2+ transients and Na+-Ca2+ exchange except IK1. Shows multiple biological activities such as anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative and immunomodulatory effects.In vitro: The treatment of human myeloid cells with piceatannol suppressed TNF-induced DNA binding activity of NF-κB. The effect of piceatannol was not restricted to myeloid cells, as TNF-induced NF-κB activation was also suppre

Piceatannol is a stilbenol that is trans-stilbene in which one of the phenyl groups is substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 3 and 4, while the other phenyl group is substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 3 and 5. It has a role as a protein kinase inhibitor, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, an antineoplastic agent, a plant metabolite, a hypoglycemic agent, an apoptosis inducer and a geroprotector. It is a stilbenol, a member of resorcinols, a member of catechols and a polyphenol. It derives from a hydride of a trans-stilbene.|Piceatannol is a polyhydroxylated stilbene extract from the seeds of Euphorbia lagascae, which inhibits protein tyrosine kinase Syk and induces apoptosis.
