  3. Cantharidic acid

Cantharidic acid is a selective inhibitor for protein phosphatase 2 (PP2A) and protein phosphatase 1 (PP1). Cantharidic acid inhibits cell viability and arrest cell cycle at sub G1 phase, induces apoptosis in cells NPC-39 and HONE-1 through the upregulation of ERK1/2, p38, and JNK1/2 pathway.

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.
