Helenalin
- CAS No.: 6754-13-8
- Formula:C15H18O4
- Molecular Weight:262.30
IUPAC Name: (3aS,4S,4aR,7aR,8R,9aR)-4-hydroxy-4a,8-dimethyl-3-methylene-3,3a,4,4a,7a,8,9,9a-octahydroazuleno[6,5-b]furan-2,5-dione
InChIKey: ZVLOPMNVFLSSAA-XEPQRQSNSA-N
SMILES: O[C@H]1[C@]2([H])C(C(O[C@@]2(C[C@H]([C@@]([H])([C@]13C)C=CC3=O)C)[H])=O)=C
Biological Activity: Helenalin is an anti-inflammatory sesquiterpene lactone. Helenalin selectively inhibits transcription factor NF-κB by directly targeting p65. Helenalin has alkylating activity, targets the cysteine sulfhydryl groups in the p65 subunit of NF-κB, thereby inhibits its DNA binding[1][2].
