Biochem/physiol Actions

Evodiamine is an indole alkaloid found in Evodia rutaescarpa. It acts as an anti-inflammatory compound; the mechanism of action may be inhibition of prostaglandin E2 synthesis or by cyclooxygenase 2 induction and NF-κB activation. Evodiamine has been studied for multiple cellular effects, including apoptotic activity, interference with metastasis and inhibition of angiogenesis.
