84-60-6
Chemical Structure
Anthraflavic acid
- CAS No.: 84-60-6
- Formula:C14H8O4
- Molecular Weight:240.21
IUPAC Name: 2,6-dihydroxyanthracene-9,10-dione
InChIKey: APAJFZPFBHMFQR-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: O=C1C2=C(C=C(O)C=C2)C(C3=CC=C(O)C=C13)=O
Biological Activity: Anthraflavic acid specifically inhibits the activity of cytochrome P-448 without affecting phenobarbital-induced cytochrome P-450 or NADPH-dependent cytochrome c reduction. Anthraflavic acid inhibits cytosolic metabolic pathways, blocks the microsomal and cytosolic activation of IQ, and reduces the metabolic activation level of Glu-P-I. Anthraflavic acid may exert anticancer activity by inhibiting the metabolic activation of chemical carcinogens. Anthraflavic acid is applicable to cancer-related research[1][2][3].
