Anacardic Acid

Inh 16611-84-0 2-Hydroxy-6-pentadecylbenzoic acid
Catalog No. ABIN7233231

Quick Overview for Anacardic Acid (ABIN7233231)

Application

Inhibition (Inh)

Chemical Name

2-Hydroxy-6-pentadecylbenzoic acid
  • Purpose

    HAT Inhibitor

    Characteristics

    Anacardic acids occur in cashew nut shells and are similar in structure to urushiols, the irritating components of poison ivy. Anacardic acid inhibits histone acetyltransferases (HATs) p300 (IC50 = 8.5 μM) and PCAF (IC50 = 5.0 μM) with no effect on HDACs. It also suppresses expression or activity of proteins involved in invasion and angiogenesis, e.g. MMP-2 (IC50 = 11 μM) and -9. 6-PDSA, a saturated form of anacardic acid, induces macrophage activation via MAPK and NF-κB. When used at 125 μM, it sensitized cancer cells to radiation therapy by reducing histone expression. It also blocks inducible and constitutive activation of NF-κB in leukemia cells.
