    Product Description

    Asperphenamate is a fungal secondary metabolite originally isolated from A. flavipes.1 It inhibits proliferation of T47D and MDA-MB-231 breast and HL-60 leukemia cancer cell lines (IC50s = 92.3, 96.5, and 97.9 μM, respectively) and inhibits yeast α-glucosidase activity (IC50 = 8.3 μM).2,3
