Phytochemical Name : Machilin D

Properties Information
PhytoCAT-ID PhytoCAT-1708
Phytochemical name or plant extracts Machilin D
PMID 32033472
Literature evidence These results suggest that machilin D blocks IL-6 and IL-8 signaling and induces CSC death and thus may be a potential agent targeting BCSCs.
IUPAC name 4-[(1S)-1-hydroxy-2-[2-methoxy-4-[(E)-prop-1-enyl]phenoxy]propyl]-2-methoxyphenol
Phytochemicals’ class or type of plant extracts lignin

Plant parts NA
Other cancers Breast cancer
Target gene or protein IL-6, IL-8, NF-κB
Gene or Protein evidence These results suggest that machilin D blocks NF-κB and IL-6 and IL-8 signaling and induces CSC death. IL-6 and IL-8 regulation is important for breast CSC formation.
Target pathways Machilin D inhibited mammosphere formation through the NF-κB signaling pathway
IC50 NA
Potency These results suggest that machilin D blocks IL-6 and IL-8 signaling and induces CSC death and thus may be a potential agent targeting BCSCs.
Cell line/ mice model MCF-7, MDA-MB-231
Additional information  Machilin D inhibited the growth and mammosphere formation of breast cancer cells and inhibited tumor growth in a xenograft mouse model.
