A Synthetic Small Molecule F240B Decreases NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation by Autophagy Induction

Conjugated polyenes are a class of widely occurring natural products with various biological functions. We previously identified 4-hydroxy auxarconjugatin B (4-HAB) as anti‐inflammatory agent with an IC50 of ~20 µM. In this study, we synthesized a new anti‐inflammatory 4-HAB analogue, F240B, which h...
