Abstract:The diterpene kirenol has notable biological activity. In this study, molecular docking software (Discovery Studio) was adopted to investigate the anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant properties of kirenol. Twenty‐nine kirenol derivatives were synthesized based on the molecular docking outcomes. Cytotoxicity analyses of the kirenol derivatives were performed in Raw264.7 macrophages using the CCK‐8 assay, and nitric oxide (NO) concentrations were determined using the Griess assay. The DCFH‐DA approach identified t… Show more
