    Product Description

    Deoxaphomin is a polyketide synthase-derived cytochalasin that has been found in P. semeniperda and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4 It inhibits anti-mouse IgG-induced capping in isolated mouse splenic lymphocytes by 70% when used at a concentration of 20 µM and inhibits actin filament elongation in C3H fibroblasts by 66% at 2 µM.3 Deoxaphomin (100 µM) inhibits seed germination and radicle growth induced by GR24 (Item No. 13210) in the broomrapes O. crenata and P. ramosa.2 It inhibits the growth of OE21, U373 MG, SK-MEL-28, A549, B16/F10, and Hs 683 cancer cells (IC50s = 0.75, 1.7, 5.9, 2.2, and 0.61 µM, respectively).4
