Xanthiazone

Description:
Xanthiazone is a natural product that has been found to have anti-cancer properties. The fruit of the plant Xanthiazone is used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat inflammatory diseases and radiation-induced damage. Xanthiazone inhibits the growth of cells by binding to their surface receptors, which prevents cell proliferation. It also works as an antioxidant and protects against oxidative stress by inhibiting the mitochondrial membrane potential, which leads to the production of reactive oxygen species.Xanthiazone has been shown to inhibit tumor growth in vivo models using mouse lung cancer cells (e.g., MCL-1) and human breast cancer cells (e.g., MCF-7).
