Description

Avarone ((+)-Avarone) is a sesquiterpenoidal quinone that can be isolated from Dysidea avara. Avarone shows cytotoxicity. Avarone shows antileukemic activity[1][2].

In Vitro

Avarone (24, 48, 72 h) inhibits U937 cell growth with IC50s of 95.8, 52.9, 33.5 µM at 24, 48, 72 h, respectively[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
