In Vitro

13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol (Compound δ-13′-COOH) (24 h) potently inhibits the growth of HepG2 cells with an EC50 of 6.5 μM[1].
13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol (20 μM; 6 h) induces significant apoptosis in HepG2 cells, inducing cleavage of caspase-3, caspase-7, caspase-9, and PARP-1[1].
13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol (10 μM; 6 h) significantly increases intracellular ROS formation in HepG2 cells[1].
13'-Carboxy-δ-tocopherol (10-20 μM; 1 h) reduces mitochondrial membrane potential in HepG2 cells[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
