Biological Activity

[Description]:

Cardamonin (Cardamomin), a natural flavone isolated from Alpinia katsumadai Hayata, acts as an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) activator. Cardamonin alleviates inflammatory bowel disease by the inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome activation via an AhR/Nrf2/NQO1 pathway[1].
