The Uses of 6-pentadecylsalicylic acid
Anacardic acid, isolated from cashew shells or several other medicinal plants, is the general name given to a family of four different 6-alkyl salicyclic acids having varying degrees of unsaturation in the 15-carbon alkyl chain. These compounds are associated with anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, molluscicidal, and anti-microbial activity. Literature frequently sites and gives the name anacardic acid to the completely-saturated compound (6-pentadecyl salicylic acid). Anacardic acid inhibits the histone acetyltransferase (HAT) activity of the transcription co-activators p300 and p300/CREB-binding protein-associated factor (PCAF) with IC50 values of 8.5 and 5 μM, respectively. At 25 μmol/L, anacardic acid suppresses NF-κB activation, inhibits IκB-α phosphorylation, and prohibits p65 nuclear translocation in KBM-5 cells.[Cayman Chemical]
The Uses of 6-pentadecylsalicylic acid
2-Hydroxy-6-pentadecyl Benzoic Acid, is a compound that is used to treat agriculture from various fruit insects. Derivative of this molecule has been also shown to be a potent activator of human 5-lipoxygenases (5-LOX).
The Uses of 6-pentadecylsalicylic acid
Anacardic acid has been used:
- as a histone acetylase (HAT) inhibitor to study its effects on rat cortical neurons
- as a positive control in acetylation assay in vitro
- as an acetylase inhibitor to study its effects on the ribonucleic acid export 1 (Rae-1) protein acetylation that was transfected in human embryonic kidney cells
What are the applications of Application
Anacardic Acid is shown to potently inhibit HAT-dependent transcription and SUMOylation
Definition
ChEBI: Anacardic acid is a hydroxybenzoic acid that is salicylic acid substituted by a pentadecyl group at position 6. It is a major component of cashew nut shell liquid and exhibits an extensive range of bioactivities. It has a role as an EC 2.3.1.48 (histone acetyltransferase) inhibitor, an apoptosis inducer, a neuroprotective agent, an EC 3.4.22.69 (SARS coronavirus main proteinase) inhibitor, an anticoronaviral agent, an antibacterial agent, an anti-inflammatory agent and a plant metabolite. It is a hydroxybenzoic acid and a hydroxy monocarboxylic acid. It is functionally related to a salicylic acid.
General Description
A cell-permeable ginkgolic acid (Cat. No. 345887) analog that inhibits protein SUMO (Cat. Nos. 662037, 662039, and 662042) modification (IC50 = 2.2 μM using RanGAP1-C2 as substrate) in an ATP-dependent manner by selectively targeting SUMO-activating enzyme E1 (Cat. Nos. 662073 and 662074) and interfering with E1-SUMO intermediate formation. Both anacardic acid and ginkgolic acid are shown to effectively decrease overall SUMOylation of 293T cellular proteins in a dose-dependent manner, while neither compound is effective in affecting overall cellular protein ubiquitination or histone H4K8 acetylation in 293T cultures, although anacardic acid is shown to inhibit p300 (Cat. No. 506200) and PCAF (Cat. No. 124026) histone acetyltransferase activities in cell-free acetylase assays (by 82% and 86%, respectively, at 10 μM). Also reported to inhibit the activity of prostaglandin synthase, tyrosinase, and lipoxygenase, as well as to enhance Aurora kinase A (Cat. No. 481413), but not Aurora kinase B, autophosphorylation and kinase activity by inducing conformation change and enhancing ATP binding.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Target IC50: 5 μM against HAT; 8.5 μM against PCAF; 2.2 μM inhibiting protein SUMO modification using RanGAP1-C2 as substrate
in vitro
lncap, a classical metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma cell line, was adopted to study the effect of aa on cell growth, cycles and apoptosis. it was found that 125 m aa significantly inhibited lncap cell proliferation. in addition, the g1/s cell cycles arrest and the apoptosis of lncap cell was induced. further mechanistic study suggested that aa induced cell apoptosis via suppressing p300. [1]
in vivo
diesel exhaust particle- (dep-) induced lung inflammation model was established to study the effect of aa on inflammation in mice. ten days before dep-instillation stimulation, mice were orally pretreated with 50, 150, or 250 mg/kg of aa for thirty days. all doses of aa ameliorated activities of oxidative enzymes. moreover, 50 mg/kg of aa significantly decreased the expression level of tumor necrosis factor in lung.
