(-)-Sesamin(CAT: I012898) is a natural lignan compound primarily derived from sesame seeds (Sesamum indicum), known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and lipid-lowering properties. It exerts its biological effects by modulating enzymes involved in lipid metabolism, such as Δ5-desaturase and Δ6-desaturase, and reducing oxidative stress through enhanced activity of antioxidant enzymes. (-)-Sesamin is widely used in nutraceutical and pharmacological research, particularly for studying its role in cardiovascular health, metabolic disorders, and neuroprotection. Its unique bioactivity makes it a promising candidate for therapeutic development targeting oxidative stress, inflammation, and lipid-related diseases.
