Bioactivity 13-Methyltetradecanoic acid (13-MTD), a saturated branched-chain fatty acid with potent anticancer effects. 13-Methyltetradecanoic acid induces apoptosis in many types of human cancer cells[1][2].
Invitro 13-Methyltetradecanoic acid (13-MTD; 0-140 μg/mL; 12-24 hours) inhibits cell viability and proliferation in human bladder cancer cells by inducing apoptosis[1].13-Methyltetradecanoic acid (13-MTD; 70 μg/mL; 2-48 hours) treatments results in significant accumulation of cells with sub-G1 DNA content in a time-dependent manner, with the proportion of sub-G1 phase DNA content ranging from 9.25% to 85.3% over 2-48 hours[1].13-Methyltetradecanoic acid (13-MTD; 70 μg/mL; 2-24 hours) down-regulates Bcl-2 and up-regulates Bax. This promotes mitochondrial dysfunction, leading to the release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria to the cytoplasm, as well as the proteolytic activation of caspases. 13-Methyltetradecanoic acid down-regulates AKT phosphorylation and activates phosphorylation of p38 and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)[1].
