Product Information

• Name: Apratoxin A
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Apratoxin A is a cyclodepsipeptide, which is a secondary metabolite isolated from marine cyanobacteria, specifically from the genus Lyngbya. This compound exhibits a unique mode of action by simultaneously targeting the signal transduction pathways of both the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR). By inhibiting these pathways, Apratoxin A effectively suppresses tumor cell proliferation and induces apoptosis.
