Biological Activity

Description Glycyrrhizin (NSC 167409, Glycyrrhizic Acid) is a direct HMGB1(high mobility group box 1) inhibitor that inhibits HMGB1-dependent inflammatory molecule expression and oxidative stress; modulates P38 and P-JNK but not p-ERK signalling; Also inhibits 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and monoamine oxidase (MAO).
Targets
11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase [1] HMGB1 [2] MAO [4]
(Cell-free)
0.16 μM
In vitro

Glycyrrhizin inhibits monoamine oxidase (MAO) with the IC50 value of 0.16 μM[4].
In vivo

Glycyrrhizin increases the levels of monoamines like epinephrine and dopamine in brains of mice[3].
