The anti-inflammatory activity of 1–8 to inhibit up-regulation of the pro-inflammatory iNOS (inducible nitric oxide synthase) and COX-2 (cyclooxygenase-2) proteins in LPS (lipopolysaccharide)-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage cells and the cytotoxicity of compounds 4–8 against a panel of cancer cell lines including human liver carcinoma (HepG2 and HepG3), human breast carcinoma (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231), and human lung carcinoma (A-549) were evaluated in order to discover bioactive natural products. Here, NOS2 is linked to lung carcinoma.
