Chemical Structure
Moracin N
- CAS No.: 135248-05-4
- Formula:C19H18O4
- Molecular Weight:310.34
InChIKey: WBSCSIABHGPAMC-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: OC1=CC(C2=CC3=C(C=C(C(C/C=C(C)\C)=C3)O)O2)=CC(O)=C1
Biological Activity: Moracin N is a benzofuran compound. At low concentrations, Moracin N activates the Keap1/Nrf2 pathway, downregulates the expression of FTH1 and ACSL4, enhances glutathione synthesis, and inhibits neuronal ferroptosis. At high concentrations, Moracin N induces ROS accumulation, activates mitochondrial apoptosis, and triggers autophagy-mediated cell death by inhibiting the AKT/mTOR pathway. Moracin N can be used in research related to non-small cell lung cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma and ischemic brain injury[1][2][3].
