Product Information

• Name: 1H-Indene-2-carboxylic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1H-Indene-2-carboxylic acid is a 6-carboxylic acid that has been found to inhibit the growth of cancer cells in vitro. It has been shown to competitively inhibit the activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ), which is involved in controlling cell growth and differentiation. 1H-Indene-2-carboxylic acid also inhibits the activity of cytochrome P450 and induces apoptotic cell death, which may be due to its ability to activate caspase 3. This drug was also shown to increase levels of growth factors by upregulating expression of insulin like growth factor II (IGFII).
