Application Notes

Ambuic acid is an antifungal cyclohexanone metabolite produced by Pestalotiopsis sp. Ambuic acid inhibits the biosynthesis of quorum sensing peptides in Gram-positive bacteria. Ambuic acid may exert anti-​inflammatory action by blocking the activation of the ERK​/JNK MAPK signaling pathway, without the involvement of the p38 MAPK or NF-​κB signaling pathways. Ambuic acid demonstrates potent antiproliferative activity.
