Biological Activity |
Gamma-Mangostin is a novel competitive 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A (5-HT2A) receptors antagonist, purified from the fruit hull of the medicinal plant Garcinia mangostana. Gamma-Mangostin is a inhibitor of Transthyretin (TTR) fibrillization, it binds to the thyroxine (T4)-binding sites and stabilized the TTR tetramer[2]. Gamma-Mangostin inhibits [3H] spiperone binding to cultured rat aortic myocytes (IC50=3.5 nM) and reduces The perfusion pressure response of rat coronary artery to 5-HT2A (IC50=0.32 µM) [1].
