Description
Agaric acid (Agaricinic Acid) is an orally active inhibitor of adenine nucleotide translocase found in specific fungi. Agaric acid can inhibit the biofilm formation of various bacteria such as Salmonella. Agaric acid can also induce mitochondrial permeability transition, prompting mitochondria to release Ca2+, disrupting the transmembrane potential, and causing mitochondrial swelling. In addition, Agaric acid can also inhibit citrate transport in liver mitochondria and participate in the inhibition of fatty acid synthesis, affecting multiple metabolic processes[1][2][3][4].
