Description

10-Aminodecanoic acid is an organic compound that belongs to the group of fatty acids. It is a monomeric molecule with two carboxylic acid groups and one hydroxyl group. 10-Aminodecanoic acid has been shown to induce tumor regression in xenograft models for human prostate, breast, and colon cancer cells. The mechanism of action is currently unclear but may be due to specific interactions with amino acids on glycoproteins or amides on proteins. 10-Aminodecanoic acid also stabilizes membranes by forming hydrogen bonds with phospholipids.
