HIDE SMILES / InChI
Bergapten, known as 5-methoxypsoralen, a cumarine-derivate compound, presents in many fruits and vegetables. It has shown antitumor effects in a variety of cell types. The key target of bergapten action in breast cancer cells was identified the oncosuppressor gene PTEN (phosphatase tensin homolog deleted from chromosome 10); bergapten by inducing PTEN expression, produces autophagy in breast cancer cells. Besides, bergapten is under investigation in clinical trial phase III for patients with severe generalized atopic dermatitis.

Sample Use Guides

1,2 mg/kg 2 hours before UVA irradiation p.o. 3 times weekly for 5 weeks
Route of Administration: Oral
Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) were cultured in osteogenic induction medium with the addition of bergapten for 2 weeks. The concentrations of bergapten used were 0.1, 1, and 10 μmol/L in vitro. Bergapten promotes the expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) by BMSCs in vitro in a dose-dependent manner, as revealed by ALP staining.
