Description: Ermanin, a flavonoid isolated from Tanacetum microphyllum, inhibits platelet aggregation and exhibits anti-tuberculosis, anti-viral/bacterial, and potential anti-HIV-1 activities. It has anti-inflammatory properties through the inhibition of iNOS and COX-2 expression and is effective at lower concentrations in inhibiting Dione juno larvae. Target: Influenza Virus, HIV Protease, Antibacterial, COX, Antibiotic, NOS. Smiles: O(C)C1=C(OC=2C(C1=O)=C(O)C=C(O)C2)C3=CC=C(OC)C=C3. References: Guerra JA, et al.
