Product Information

• Name: Pedalitin
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Pedalitin is a fatty acid with a hydroxyl group and an acetate extract that has potent antitumor activity. It is also an inhibitor of opportunistic fungal growth, such as Candida albicans. Pedalitin has been shown to inhibit the production of inflammatory mediators, such as prostaglandins, in experimental models of autoimmune diseases. Pedalitin also inhibits the growth of bacterial cells by inhibiting their ability to form lipids from acetate. The effect on bacterial cells was demonstrated using hl-60 cells. Pedalitin inhibits the α subunit of ATP synthase in mitochondria, thereby inhibiting the formation of ATP and leading to cell death.
