Jacaric acid
Jacaric acid is a conjugated linolenic acid, which inhibits viability in cells PC-3 (IC50 is 11.8 μM), LNCaP (IC50 is 2.2 μM) and DLD-1, induces apoptosis and necrosis. Jacaric acid exhibits anticaner activity against prostate cancer and adenocarcinoma. Jacaric acid exhibits immunomodulating activity in murine peritoneal macrophages as an immunopotentiator. Jacaric acid is orally active.

Biological Activity
Jacaric acid (0-10 μM) dose- and time-dependently induces apoptosis in cells PC-3 and LNCaP, through an intrinsic and an intrinsic and extrinsic pathway, respectively[1].
Jacaric acid (0-10 μM) induces cytotoxicity in DLD-1 cells through intracellular incorporation and induction of apoptosis via lipid peroxidation[2].
Jacaric acid (50-100 μM) activates the macrophage through secretion of cytokines IFN-γ, IL-1β and TNF-α, enhances the endocytic activity in murine peritoneal macrophages and induces the cytostatic activity in MBL-2 cells[3].
