Verbascoside acts as an ATP-competitive inhibitor of PKC, with an IC 50 of 25 µM. Verbascoside shows K i s of 22 and 28 µM with respect to ATP and histone, respectively. Verbascoside has potent antitumor activity against L-1210 cells, with an IC 50 of 13 µM. Verbascoside (5, 10 µM) suppresses 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB)-induced T cell costimulatory factors CD86 and CD54, proinflammatory cytokines, and NFκB pathway activation in THP-1 cells.

Verbascoside (1%) reduces the overall scratching behavior incidence as well as the severity of the skin lesions in 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB)-induced atopic dermatitis (AD) mice model. Verbascoside also blocks DNCB-induced expression of proinflammatory cytokine TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-4 mRNA in skin lesions. Verbascoside (50, 100 mg/kg, i.p.) does not modify chronic constriction injury (CCI)-induced cold allodynia. Verbascoside (200 mg/kg, i.p.) decreases hyper-sensitivity to cold stimulus, acetone, on day 3 in rats. Verbascoside also significantly reduces behavioral changes associated with neuropathy. Moreover, Verbascoside decreases Bax and increases Bcl-2 on day 3.
