D-Fuculose is a medicinal compound that has shown anticancer properties in various studies. It is a kinase inhibitor that targets specific kinases involved in cancer cell growth and survival. D-Fuculose has been found to induce apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in tumor cells and inhibit the growth of cancer cells. It has also been shown to have potential as a therapeutic agent for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by reducing the expression of hepcidin, a protein associated with HCC progression. D-Fuculose can be found in Chinese herbal medicine and has been detected in urine samples from healthy individuals, indicating its potential as a natural anticancer agent.
