Bavachinin

Bavachinin is agonist of pan-peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR), with the IC50 value of 21.043 μM, 12.819 μM, and 0.622 μM to PPAR-α, RRAR-β/δ, and PPAR-γ, respectively. Bavachinin is an inhibitor of HIF-1α. Bavachinin exhibits antitumor activity against non-small cell lung cancer by targeting RRAR-γ. Bavachinin is a natural compound with anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic activities. Bavachinin has orally bioactivity.[1][2][3][4][5].
