Bixin

Catalog No.: A30533
Apoptosis Inducer
Bixin is a carotenoid derived from the seeds of Bixa orellana that acts as an apoptosis inducer. It has been shown to effectively induce cell death in cancer cells while also exhibiting notable anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and antioxidant properties. Additionally, Bixin treatment has demonstrated a protective effect on cardiac function by reducing fibrosis, inflammation, and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), making it a valuable compound for research in cancer and cardiovascular diseases.
