Cryptotanshinone is a quinoid diterpene isolated from the root of the Asian medicinal plant, Salvia miotiorrhiza bunge. Recently it was discovered that the compound is a potent STAT3 inhibitor. Cryptotanshinone rapidly inhibited STAT3 Tyr705 phosphorylation through a JAK2-independent mechanism. Cryptotanshinone selectively inhibits STAT3-activated cell lines through binding to monomer STAT3, subsequently blocking the dimerization and inhibiting STAT3 transcriptional regulatory activity. Previously, it was reported that the compound counteracts inflammation through the inhibition of cyclooxygenase II activity and endothelin-1 expression. In traditional oriental medicine dried roots of Salvia Miltiorrhiza Bunge (Danshen) have commonly been used for the treatment of circulatory disorders, liver disease, coronary heart disease, hepatitis, and chronic renal failure.
Cryptotanshinone is a specific STAT3 inhibitor. It prevents STAT3 dimerization.

Ionic liquid-based extraction of medicinal or useful compounds from plants was investigated as an alternative to supercritical fluid, cloud point and conventional organic solvent extractions. The method integrated extraction and preconcentration. Medicinal products were first extracted by an ionic liquid
