Notes: Asaraldehyde is a plant metabolite that has been found in D. carota and has diverse biological activities.{69334,69335,69336,69337} It selectively inhibits COX-2 over COX-1 when used at a concentration of 100 µg/ml and inhibits aggregation of washed isolated rabbit platelet-rich plasma induced by arachidonic acid (Item Nos. 90010 / 90010.1 / 10006607) or collagen (IC50s = 53.7 and 27.6 µM, respectively).{69334,69335} Asaraldehyde (1 mg/disc) is active against C. perfringens and C. difficile.{69335} It decreases triglyceride, perilipin 1, and leptin levels and increases glycerol and hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) levels in differentiated 3T3-L1 mouse adipocytes, as well as enhances osteogenesis induced by osteogenic differentiation medium in primary human periodontal ligament stem cells when used at a concentration of 100 µg/ml.{69336,69337} Asaraldehyde has been used as a building block in the synthesis of various chalcones and flavonoids with anticancer and antioxidant activities.{69338}
