20-Hydroxylucidenic acid E2 is a triterpenoid compound found in Ganoderma lucidum. It exhibits significant inhibitory effects on inflammation induced by TPA . Additionally, 20-Hydroxylucidenic acid E2 can suppress the expression of EBV early antigen induced by TPA , with a IC50 of 290 mol ratio/32 pmol TPA (meaning that when the molar concentration of this compound is 290 times that of 32 pmol of TPA, it can inhibit 50% of EBV early antigen expression). Therefore, 20-Hydroxylucidenic acid E2 has potential applications in anti-inflammatory and anticancer research.

The T7 tag (MASMTGGQQMG) is a peptide with 11 amino acids encoded in the leader sequence of T7 bacteriophage gene10. This gene encodes a T7 major capsid protein.

Cauloside D, a triterpene glycoside isolated from Caulophyllum robustum Max, inhibits the expression of iNOS and proinflammatory cytokines with anti-inflammatory effects.
