| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Pseudolaric acid B (PAB) is a diterpene acid isolated from the bark of P. kaempferi, a traditional Chinese medicinal plant. It has reported antifungal activities, consistent with its traditional use in the treatment of dermatological fungal infections.1 Moreover, PAB has diverse effects that are relevant to cancer therapy, including inducing apoptosis of cancer cells (IC50 = ~1 μM), preventing angiogenesis, and inhibiting tumor growth in vivo.2,3,4 | [Chemical Properties]
White crystalline powder, soluble in chloroform, acetone and methanol, derived from the bark of the Chinese thorn tree and the golden pine. | [Uses]
Activates PPARα and the phospholipase C (PLC) signalling pathway. Stimulates peroxisomal fatty acyl-CoA oxidase activity. These effects can be blocked by staurosporine . Exhibits significant cytotoxic activities against numerous tumor cell lines. Binds tubulin. Inhibits angiogenesis. Reduces HIF-1α protein levels. Induces apoptosis. Antifungal. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Pseudolaric acid B is a diterpene lactone. | [in vivo]
Pseudolaric Acid B (Oral gavage; 10-20 mg/kg; 3 days) has anti-fertility ability in rats, which may be related to the maternal vascular system[4]. | [IC 50]
