Benzomalvin C is a weak antagonist of the neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor, demonstrating a 46% inhibition of substance P binding at a concentration of 100 μg/mL in vitro. Additionally, it exhibits weak inhibitory activity against indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), with an IC50 value of 130 μM for recombinant IDO. Isolated from Penicillium, Benzomalvin C features a distinct epoxide group at C-19 and C-20, which differentiates it from other benzomalvins such as A, B, and E. This compound may prove valuable in neurobiology and cancer research applications due to its modulation of neurokinin signaling and IDO activity.
