Bruceine A

• Description :

  Bruceine A (Dihydrobrusatol) is a natural quassinoid. Bruceine A is an inhibitor of parasites, NF-κB, and PFKFB4 (Kd: 44 nM) . Bruceine A is an activator of P38α MAPK. Bruceine A has antiparasitic activity. Bruceine A has antitumor activity and inhibits cancer cell migration. Bruceine A blocks the cell cycle and induces apoptosis. Bruceine A can be used in parasites, pancreatic cancer, and breast cancer research[1][2][3][4][5].
