Application

Acenocoumarol was used to study the role of P-glycoprotein in transport of oral vitamin K in Caco-2 cells and as an LC/MS standard.
Acenocoumarol has been used as a standard for the determination of coumarins in cosmetics.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Acenocoumarol is a warfarin analog, an anticoagulant that inhibits Vitamin K epoxide reductase. This results in depletion of the reduced form of vitamin K (vitamin KH2), limiting the gamma-carboxylation and subsequent activation of the vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors II, VII, IX, and X and anticoagulant proteins C and S, resulting in decreased prothrombin levels and the amount of thrombin generated.
Warfarin analog; anticoagulant; inhibitor of Vit K epoxide reductase
Acenocoumarol is effective against thromboembolic disorders.
