Phytofluene
CAS:<p>Phytofluene is a natural compound that has been found to have potential as an anticancer agent. It acts as an inhibitor of cancer cell growth and induces apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in tumor cells. Phytofluene has been shown to inhibit the activity of several important proteins involved in cancer development, including chitinase and heparin-binding protein. It is derived from Chinese medicinal plants and has been used for centuries for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. In addition to its anticancer effects, phytofluene has also been found to inhibit the activity of kinases in human urine, suggesting a potential role in the treatment of other diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease.</p>Formula:C40H62Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:542.9 g/mol
