Chicanine
Chicanine is a natural lignan compound with demonstrated anti-inflammatory activity. It functions by inhibiting LPS-induced phosphorylation of key signaling proteins p38 MAPK, ERK1/2, and IκB-α in macrophages. This mechanism supports its research use in studying inflammatory pathways in both cellular and animal models.
