Dactylomelol（Cat No.:I025509）is a natural product isolated from the plant Dactylorhiza species, specifically known for its biological activities in traditional medicine. It is a sesquiterpene lactone, a class of compounds known for their anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and antimicrobial properties. Dactylomelol has been studied for its potential therapeutic applications, particularly in modulating immune responses and inhibiting the growth of cancer cells. Preclinical research suggests it may have cytotoxic effects against certain tumor cell lines. However, further studies are needed to evaluate its safety, mechanism of action, and potential for use in clinical settings.
