Product Information

• Name: 4,4'-(7-Hydroxychroman-3,4-diyl)diphenol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4,4'-(7-Hydroxychroman-3,4-diyl)diphenol (DHP) is a synthetic small molecule that is being studied for its anticancer activity. DHP has been shown to inhibit mitochondrial membrane potential, which is essential for tumor cell proliferation and metastasis. DHP has also been shown to have toxicities in vivo, including increased levels of liver enzymes in mice. This drug has been used as a probe for the study of β-catenin signaling, and it has been shown to inhibit cancer cells with high levels of β-catenin. It also inhibits tumor growth in mice by inhibiting the initiation phase of mitosis. In addition, DHP may be able to reduce the risk of escalation from colon cancer to metastatic colorectal cancer by targeting mitochondria. There are currently no clinical trials using this drug as an anti-cancer therapy. However, there are some data suggesting that this drug may be promising
