    Product Description

    Ppc-1 is a prenylated quinolinecarboxylic acid originally isolated from P. pseudo-candidum that has diverse biological activities.1,2,3 It reduces the proliferation of K562 chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cells and 3T3-L1 mouse fibroblasts when used at a concentration of 15 µM.1 Ppc-1 (1 and 10 µM) inhibits the production of IL-2 induced by concanavalin A (Item No. 14951) in Jurkat T cells.2 In vivo, Ppc-1 (0.8 mg/kg) reduces body weight gain and increases serum fatty acid levels in mice fed a commercial diet.3
