Description

4'-Hydroxychalcone is a compound that has shown to be an insulin resistance suppressant. It reduces the activity of recombinant cytochrome P450 enzymes and blocks hydroxy group metabolism, which leads to a decrease in ATP levels. This molecule also has biological properties as it can inhibit the expression of β-catenin and induce apoptosis in cancer cells. 4'-Hydroxychalcone has been found to inhibit the transfer mechanism of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PTP1B) and is able to bind with the protein marker p62/SQSTM1.
4'-Hydroxychalcone is a potent inhibitor for PTP1B, which is a negative regulator for insulin signaling pathways. In addition, 4'-hydroxychalcone can bind with p62/SQSTM1, which is a marker for autophagy proteins. These properties have been shown to have anti-cancer effects on multiple cancer types including
