Parthenolide(CAT: I002583) is a naturally occurring sesquiterpene lactone and a potent NF-κB pathway inhibitor, widely studied for its anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties. By inhibiting IκB kinase (IKK) activity, it prevents NF-κB activation, thereby reducing the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and survival signals in cancer cells. Additionally, it induces oxidative stress and apoptosis in malignant cells, making it a valuable tool in oncology and immunology research. Parthenolide is extensively used to explore therapeutic approaches for inflammatory disorders, leukemia, and solid tumors, providing a foundation for developing targeted treatments and combination therapies.
