Preventive effects of cristacarpin on experimentally induced uveitis by targeting NF-κB

Cristacarpin is a novel prenylated pterocarpan that reportedly exhibits broad anti-cancer activity by enhancing endoplasmic reticulum stress. However, whether and how cristacarpin affects in-flammatory processes remain largely unknown. In the present study, the anti-inflammatory effect of cristacarp...
