Product Description

Product Name	Carbenoxolone
CAS	5697-56-3
MF	C34H50O7
MW	570.76
EINECS	227-174-2

Carbenoxolone is a synthetic derivative of glycyrrhizic acid, a compound found in the root of the licorice plant (Glycyrrhiza glabra). It belongs to a class of compounds known as glycyrrhetinic acid derivatives and is primarily used medicinally as a gastric protectant and anti-ulcer agent. In addition, carbenoxolone has been used experimentally to study the function and regulation of gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) between cells.

 

1. Gastric Protection: Used to treat and prevent gastric ulcers by enhancing the mucus barrier in the stomach lining, protecting against acid-induced damage.
2. Anti-Inflammatory: Employed in research settings to study the role of gap junctions and their modulation in inflammatory processes due to its ability to block connexins.
3. Experimental Research: As a tool in scientific research to understand the function of gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) in various physiological and pathological conditions.
4. Cosmetic and Dermatological: Investigated for potential skin barrier enhancement and anti-aging effects, though not widely used clinically for these purposes.

1. Gap Junction Blocker: It primarily functions as a selective blocker of gap junction channels, inhibiting the direct transfer of ions, second messengers, and small molecules between adjacent cells.
2. Mucosal Strengthener: Enhances the protective mucus layer in the gastrointestinal tract, helping to prevent damage from acid and digestive enzymes.
3. Anti-Hypersecretory: Reduces excessive gastric acid secretion, contributing to its therapeutic effect in treating gastric ulcers.
4. Modulation of Cell Signaling: By blocking GJIC, it modulates cellular communication and signaling pathways, which can have implications in various disease processes, including cancer and cardiovascular disease (under investigation).
