Anacardic Acid

Synonyms: 6-pentadecylsalicylic Acid

Anacardic Acid (6-pentadecylsalicylic Acid) is a potent inhibitor of p300 and p300/CBP-associated factor histone acetyltranferases, which also has antibacterial activity, antimicrobial activity, prostaglandin synthase inhibition, and tyrosinase and lipoxygenase inhibition.

Biological Activity

Description Anacardic Acid (6-pentadecylsalicylic Acid) is a potent inhibitor of p300 and p300/CBP-associated factor histone acetyltranferases, which also has antibacterial activity, antimicrobial activity, prostaglandin synthase inhibition, and tyrosinase and lipoxygenase inhibition.

In vitro
In vitro Anacardic acid is found to be a common inhibitor of several clinically targeted enzymes such as NFkB kinase, histone acetyltransferase (HATs), lipoxygenase (LOX-1), xanthine oxidase, tyrosinase and ureases[4]. Anacardic acid is also an efficient inhibitor of Tip60 in vitro.It inhibits the Tip60-dependent acetylation and activation of the ATM protein kinase in HeLa cells, and sensitizes the cells to the cytotoxic effects of radiation[2]. Anacardic acid can effectively prevent cell damage induced by H2O2 because this can be converted to ROS, hydroxyl radicals, in the presence of metal ions[4].
Kinase Assay HAT and HDAC Activity Assays
After homogenization of cardiac tissues, nucleoproteins are extracted using a Nuclear Extract Kit according to the manufacturer's instructions. HAT and HDAC activities of the nuclear protein extracts are determined using a colorimetric assay included in the HAT and HDAC assay kits.
Cell Research Cell lines HeLa and 293T cells, SQ20B and SCC35 squamous cell carcinoma cell lines
Concentrations 0-100 μM
Incubation Time 40 min
Method HeLa and 293T cells are grown in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium/10% fetal calf serum. SQ20B and SCC35 squamous cell carcinoma cell lines are cultured in modified eagles medium/10% fetal calf serum.For anacardic acid (EMD Biosciences, CA) exposure, cells are preincubated with anacardic acid for 40 min, irradiated, then allowed to recover for 4 h. Cells are then switched to fresh media and allowed to grow for 10 days.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
