The antitumour fungal metabolite ascochlorin specifically inhibits matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9) activity through suppression of activator protein-1 (AP-1) dependent induction of MMP-9 gene expression. Via AP-1 suppression ascochlorin selectively kills MX-1 cells, a human breast cancer cell line lacking estrogen receptors. Ascochlorin also shows activity against Newcastle disease and herpes simplex viruses. Purity: >95% by HPLC Solubility: Soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMF or DMSO. CAS Number: 26166-39-2 Molecular Formula: C23H29ClO4 Molecular Weight: 404.9 |
