Product Information

• Name: 1-Phenanthrol
• Synonyms: 1-Phenanthrenol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1-Phenanthrol is a naturally occurring phenanthrene derivative that is used in the treatment of cervical cancer. It has been shown to be effective in the chemiluminescence method using urine samples, which indicates that it may have an effect on the body's metabolism. 1-Phenanthrol has also been shown to inhibit the production of s-phenylmercapturic acid, which is a metabolite of aromatic amines. This inhibition may be due to its receptor binding properties as it binds to and activates the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) and PPARγ. 1-Phenanthrol also inhibits angiotensin II type 1 receptors and can cause vasorelaxation by reducing blood pressure.
