Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid is an antifungal agent. Additionally, Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid exhibits anticancer activity by inducing apoptosis in cancer cells through the regulation of ROS generation. Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid can upregulate the expression of IL-8 and ICAM-1 while inhibiting the release of RANTES and MCP-1, demonstrating its potential immunomodulatory effects. Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid holds significant research value in the areas of anti-infection, anticancer, and immune response modulation.

Description

Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid is an antifungal agent. Additionally, Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid exhibits anticancer activity by inducing apoptosis in cancer cells through the regulation of ROS generation. Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid can upregulate the expression of IL-8 and ICAM-1 while inhibiting the release of RANTES and MCP-1, demonstrating its potential immunomodulatory effects. Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid holds significant research value in the areas of anti-infection, anticancer, and immune response modulation[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (10-100 µM, 24 and 48 hours) can effectively inhibit the proliferation of DU145 cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner[2].
Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (50 µM, 24 hours) can induce apoptosis in DU145 cells through ROS generation and mitochondrial apoptosis pathways[2].
Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (50 µM, 36 hours) can upregulate IL-8 and ICAM-1 expression, inhibit RANTES and MCP-1 release, and has potential immunomodulatory activity[3].

Cell Viability Assay[2]

Cell Line: DU145 prostate cancer cells
Concentration: 10, 25, 50, 75, 100 µM
Incubation Time: 24 and 48 hours
Result: Inhibited DU145 cell proliferation in a time- and dose-dependent manner, with the highest inhibition at the maximum concentration.

Apoptosis Analysis[2]

Cell Line: DU145 prostate cancer cells
Concentration: 50 µM
Incubation Time: 24 hours
Result: Induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in DU145 cells, causing mitochondrial membrane depolarization and apoptosis.
In Vivo

Phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (2 and 3 µg/mL, added through E3 medium, single dose) significantly prevented V. anguillarum infection in zebrafish embryos[4].

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

Animal Model: Zebrafish embryos infected with Vibrio anguillarum[4]
Dosage: 2 µg/mL and 3 µg/mL
Administration: Added through zebrafish embryo E3 medium, single dose
Result: Effectively inhibited V. anguillarum infection in zebrafish embryos and increased embryo hatching rate.

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.
