Comment: Oridonin is a plant-derived terpenoid. It has been identified as an active ingredient in species including Rabdosia rubescens (Chinese sage) [12], Isodon rugosus and Isodon ternifolius. Oridonin is proposed to exhibit a wide range of pharmacological properties, including antineoplastic, anti-angiogenic, pro-apoptotic, anti-asthmatic, anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial actions [1]. Rabdosia rubescens root extract has been used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat inflammatory diseases and oral cancer.
The dissection of oridonin's specific mechanism of action and identification of its molecular target(s) is ongoing. In respect of inflammation, oridonin binds covalently to NLRP3 and blocks its interaction with NEK7, which ultimately prevents NLRP3 inflammasone assembly and activation [2]. It does not suppress activation of NLRC4 or AIM2 inflammasomes. Oridonin also inhibits AKT serine/threonine kinases in vitro, which may be associated with its anti-tumour activity [8-9].
