Furohyperforin
Furohyperforin is a natural product isolated from Hypericum perforatum L., possessing neuroprotective and antidepressant activities. Furohyperforin acts as an NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor and also exhibits inhibitory effects on recombinant CYP3A4. Furohyperforin exerts neuroprotective effects against corticosterone-induced neuronal damage. Furohyperforin inhibits the NLRP3 inflammasome cascade and its downstream IL‑1β and GSDMD signaling pathways, and also reduces serum corticosterone levels in mice, regulating HPA axis function. Furohyperforin is applicable for depression-related research.

In Vitro
Furohyperforin (compound 7) (10 μM) protects SH-SY5Y cells against CORT-induced injury[2].
Furohyperforin (10-50 μM; 24 h) inhibits LPS-induced BV2 cell injury and shows no cytotoxicity to BV2 cells[2].
Furohyperforin exhibits weak inhibitory activity on synaptosomal serotonin uptake in rat brain synaptosomes[4].
Furohyperforin (compound 10) (10 μg/mL; 2 h pretreatment before KCl injury induction) shows no activity against KCl-induced SH-SY5Y cell injury and no activity against CORT-induced PC12 cell injury, indicating that the β-orientation of the substituent is crucial for neuroprotective activity[5].
