 | Hazard Information | Back Directory |  | [Description] 
 α-Mangostin (6147-11-1) is a xanthone natural product that has historically been used in traditional folk medicine.1 It is a potent agonist of human STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) and also weakly activates mouse STING.2 Induces IFN-β production and repolarizes human monocyte-derived M2 macrophages to M1. Improves insulin secretion and protects INS-1 cells from streptozotocin-induced damage.3 Suppresses the metastasis of human renal carcinoma cells.4 Synergizes with kinase inhibitors in suppression of proliferation of SK-MEL-2 malignant melanoma cells.5

 |  | [Definition] 
 ChEBI: Alpha-mangostin is a member of the class of xanthones that is 9H-xanthene substituted by hydroxy group at positions 1, 3 and 6, a methoxy group at position 7, an oxo group at position 9 and prenyl groups at positions 2 and 8. Isolated from the stems of Cratoxylum cochinchinense, it exhibits antioxidant, antimicrobial and antitumour activities. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent, an antimicrobial agent, an antioxidant and a plant metabolite. It is a member of xanthones, a member of phenols and an aromatic ether.
 |  | [General Description] 
 
 This substance is a primary reference substance with assigned absolute purity (considering chromatographic purity, water, residual solvents, inorganic impurities). The exact value can be found on the certificate. Produced by PhytoLab GmbH & Co. KG |  | [Biochem/physiol Actions] 
 Xanthone derivative isolated from mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana). Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. α-mangostin has been shown to induce apoptosis via the mitochondrial pathway, reduce cell proliferation and inhibit tumorigenesis.
 |  | [storage] 
 Store at 2-8°C
