Nordihydroguaiaretic acid is a5-lipoxygenase(5LOX) (IC₅₀=8 μM) and tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

The natural dicatechol Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) is a selective 5LOX inhibitor from the creosote plant (Larrea tridentata: Zygophyllaceae). The 5LOX-inhibiting natural dicatechol Nordihydroguaiaretic acid is a very effective, non-toxic antagonist of TNFα-stimulated microglial activation. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid is approximately six times more potent than Minocycline in vitro, with an IC₅₀value of 8±3 μM and no toxicity at 100 μM. Significant NO₂^-suppression is observed at 800 nM Nordihydroguaiaretic acid. Similar efficacy is observed for natural and synthetic Nordihydroguaiaretic acid, as well as for the acetyl ester of Nordihydroguaiaretic acid. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid also suppresses TNFα-stimulated PGE₂production by EOC-20 cells with an IC₅₀of 841 nM^[1].To test the proliferation effect of prostaglandin E1 and Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) on cancer cell lines, HepG2 cell lines are treated with various doses of the two compounds and the positive compounds 8-anilino-1-naphtalene sulfonate (ANS), respectively, for 24 h and cell viability is examined by the MTT assay. ANS displays a dose-dependent inhibition (0, 10, 30, 50, 80, 100, 120, and 150 μM) with the estimated IC₅₀being 25.888 μM. The tested IC₅₀of prostaglandin E1 is 41.223 μM and Nordihydroguaiaretic acid is 45.646 μM, respectively, at different concentrations of 0, 30, 60, 80, 100, 120, and 140 μM^[2].

Compared with the controlob/obchow diet group, there is a significant reduction of body weight starting from 9 wk treatment in the high-dose Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) diet group, and from 12 wk in the low-dose group. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid treatment results in higher body (rectal) temperatures ofob/obmice, especially with the high dose of Nordihydroguaiaretic acid^[3].
