Product Information

• Name: 4-Formylcinnamic acid
• Synonyms: 3-(4-Formylphenyl)acrylic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Formylcinnamic acid is a molecule that is produced by the condensation of benzaldehyde and formic acid. The nmr spectra of 4-formylcinnamic acid show that it has a structure with two aromatic rings. It has been shown to activate Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) in human liver cells. The radiation induced photochemical properties of this molecule have been studied using x-ray diffraction data and the hydrochloric acid decoupling technique. This molecule has also been shown to suppress tumor xenografts in mice and primary cells in vitro, which may be due to its ability to inhibit cellular proliferation and induce cell death by apoptosis.
