Fucoxanthinol
Fucoxanthinol, a carotenoid, is a deacetylated Fucoxanthin (HY-N2302) metabolite with oral activity, and inhibits rat pancreatic lipase with an IC50 of 764 nM. Fucoxanthinol reduces expression of Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, survivin, XIAP, cIAP2, cyclin D1, cyclin D2, cyclin E, CDK4, CDK6, β-catenin, JunD, PPARγ, and induces GADD45α expression.

Fucoxanthinol induces apoptosis, G0/G1 cell cycle arrest, inhibits cancer cell viability, proliferation, migration, invasiveness, tumour growth, adipocyte differentiation, oxidative stress, neurotoxicity, triglyceride absorption, angiogenesis, and obesity-induced inflammation. Fucoxanthinol can be used for the research of osteosarcoma, leukemia, lymphoma, adult T-cell leukemia, prostate cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer, hypertriglyceridaemia, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, obesity, insulin resistance, malignant melanoma, and type II diabetes.
