Product Information

• Name: Garcinone C
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Garcinone C is a natural compound that belongs to the flavonol glycoside family. It has been shown to inhibit protein synthesis in prostate cancer cells and has an inhibitory effect on infectious diseases. Garcinone C also inhibits fatty acid synthesis and the production of prostaglandins. This compound was originally isolated from the roots of Garcinia mangostana L., which is a small tree found in Southeast Asia. The active form of Garcinone C is uridine, which is synthesized from L-ribose and D-glucose by hydrolysis catalyzed by glucuronyl transferase or sugar kinases. Studies have shown that Garcinone C inhibits cycle analysis in carcinoma cell lines, suggesting that it may be useful for cancer treatment or prevention.
