Application
Chrysophanic acid, a natural anthraquinone, is used to study anticancer activity in EGFR-overexpressing SNU-C5 human colon cancer cells . It is also used to study the inhibition of replication of poliovirus types 2 and 3 (Picornaviridae) in vitro .
Biochem/physiol Actions
Anticancer activity for chrysophanic acid is via the EGFR/mTOR mediated signaling transduction pathway . Chrysophanic acid has two hydrophobic positions on the molecule (C-6 and the methyl group attached to C-3) which are responsible for the compound′s activity against poliovirus .
Other Notes
Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place.

Anthraquinones, a class of naturally occurring polyphenolic compounds, exhibit a wide range of bioactivities. However, most free anthraquinones are lipophilic bioactive compounds. Bovine β-lactoglobulin (βLG), a major whey protein, has a high affinity for small hydrophobic compounds. In this study

Traumatic brain injury triggers a massive glutamate efflux, activation of NMDA receptor channels, and cell death. Recently, we reported that NMDA receptors in mice are down-regulated from hours to days following closed head injury (CHI), and treatment with NMDA improved

Inactivation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a prime method used in colon cancer therapy. Here it is shown that chrysophanic acid, a natural anthraquinone, has anticancer activity in EGFR-overexpressing SNU-C5 human colon cancer cells. Chrysophanic acid preferentially blocked
