Osthole is a coumarin compound that interacts with cellular and molecular components by modulating various signaling pathways. It exerts its effects by inhibiting the activity of certain enzymes, such as acetylcholinesterase, which plays a role in neurotransmission. Osthole has the ability to regulate the expression of genes involved in inflammation and immune responses, thereby influencing cellular processes related to the immune system. Osthole interacts with ion channels, affecting the flow of ions across cell membranes and influencing cellular excitability. Osthole modulates the activity of certain receptors, such as serotonin receptors, which play a role in mood regulation and other physiological processes. Osthole′s mechanism of action involves its ability to interact with a variety of cellular and molecular components, ultimately influencing various cellular processes and pathways.
