Diacerein

Diacerein (Diacerhein), an orally active anthraquinone, reduces production of IL-1 converting enzyme then inhibits the activation of IL-1β by related downstream signaling. Diacerein is an anti-inflammatory and anti-rheumatic dr-ug. Diacerein can relieve bronchospasm and control airway inflammation in asthmatic mice. Diacerein has the potential for slow acting dr-ug in osteoarthritis (SYSADOA) research[1][2][3].
