Garcinol

SKU: orb1309641

Description

Garcinol, a polyisoprenylated benzophenone from Garcinia indica, is a dual HAT (p300/CBP and PCAF) and cholinesterase (AChE and BChE) inhibitor. Its broad activity profile underpins research into its anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer mechanisms, with studies demonstrating efficacy in both cellular and animal models of disease.

Bioactivity

• Target IC50:
  BChE:7.39 µM |AChE:0.66 µM
• In Vivo:
  Garcinolinduces significant inhibition of tumor growth.
• In Vitro:
  Garcinol (10-50 μM; 24-72 hours) induces apoptosis and inhibits the proliferation of HNSCC cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner, specifically in the cell lines CAL27 and UMSCC1. Additionally, Garcinol (50 μM; 1-6 hours) suppresses the phosphorylation and degradation of constitutive IκBα in a time-dependent manner.
