Activity

Garcinol is a polyisoprenylated benzophenone derivative from the rind of Garcinia indica fruit and is a potent inhibitor of histone acetyltransferases p300 and PCAF in-vitro. p300, also known as E1A binding protein p300, regulates cell growth and division through interacting with numerous transcription factors, and the p53 associated trancriptional coactivator PCAF (P300/CBP-associated factor) plays a direct role in transcriptional regulation.

Effect

Garcinol predominantly down-regulates global gene expression in HeLa cells. Additional research shows that Garcinol exhibits anti-carcinogenic and anti-inflammatory properties through selectively suppressing Prostaglandin E2 synthesis and 5-lipoxygenase product formation. It promotes neurogenesis in corticol progenitor cells and contributes for ex-vivo expansion of human hematopoietic stem cells (hHSC).
