Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Gambogenic acid is an active ingredient that can be isolated from gamboge. Gambogenic acid acts as an effective inhibitor of EZH2, specifically and covalently binds to Cys668 within the EZH2-SET domain, and induces EZH2 ubiquitination. Gambogenic acid can be used for the research of cancer[1][2]. | [in vivo]
Gambogenic acid (4-12 mg/kg, i.v., every 2 days, 14 days) inhibits tumor growth in SCLC mouse xenograft model[2].
Animal Model: | SCLC mouse xenograft model[1] | Dosage: | 4-12 mg/kg | Administration: | i.v., every 2 days, 14 days | Result: | Increased the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins (cleaved caspase-3, -8 and -9, Bax, cleaved PARP and p53 proteins).
Decreased the anti-apoptotic proteins (Bcl-2).
