Biological Activity

Description Tanshinone IIA (Tanshinone B) is the most abundant diterpene quinone in Danshen, Salviae miltiorrhizae Radix, a widely prescribed traditional herbal medicine that is used to treat cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases; A natural monoacylglycerol lipase inhibitor.
Targets
monoacylglycerol lipase [4]
In vitro Tanshinone IIA (Tanshinone B) is the most abundant diterpene quinone in Danshen, Salviae miltiorrhizae Radix, a widely prescribed traditional herbal medicine that is used to treat cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases. Tanshinone IIA protects cardiac myocytes against oxidative stress-induced apoptosis. The in vivo protection is mediated by increased scavenging of oxygen free radicals, prevention of lipid peroxidation and upregulation of the Bcl-2/Bax ratio. [1] Recently, tanshinone IIA was demonstrated to induce cell death and apoptosis in a variety of tumors. [2]
In vivo LD50: Rats 25g/kg (i.g.) [3]
