Sulochrin is a fungal metabolite isolated from a number of Aspergillus and Penicillium sp.. An anti-angiogenic agent, sulochrin inhibits VEGF leading to inhibition of capillary-like tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Sulochrin also inhibits eosinophil activation and chemotaxis.
Sulochrin is soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMF and DMSO.
