Description

Licarin B is a natural product that has been shown to have significant cytotoxicity against 3t3-L1 preadipocytes and HL-60 cells. This compound also induces apoptosis in mutant melanoma cells and inhibits the growth of wild-type cancer cells. Licarin B is found in plants from the families of Acanthaceae, Lamiaceae, Myrtaceae, and Rutaceae. It has not been determined what licarin B's chemical structure is, but it has been identified as an acetate extract from these plants. Licarin B's biological properties may be due to its ability to inhibit fatty acid synthase, which regulates fat accumulation in cells.
