Chemical Information
NameMesoporphyrin IX
DescriptionMesoporphyrins are porphyrins with four methyl, two ethyl, and two propionic acid side chains attached to the pyrrole rings. There are fifteen isomers of mesoporphyrin. Mesoporphyrin has anti-inflammatory action. Mesoporphyrin inhibits interferon-gamma and interleukin-6 production, which is closely related to the suppression of prostaglandin E2 generation by interfering cyclooxygenase 1 and 2 enzyme activities suggesting that the inhibition of cytokine production is one of the anti-inflammatory mechanisms of mesoporphyrin.
