Tetraprenylacetone (Geranylgeranylacetone) is an anti-peptic ulcer drug developed and approved in Japan in 1984. Tetraprenylacetone is shown to suppress H. pylori induced tissue and cell injury and inflammatory reaction, so it is expected to show beneficial effects on H. pylori-infected tissues. Tetraprenylacetone is used to treat patients suffering from peptic ulcers and gastritis. In Japan it is sold under the brand name Selbex.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide

Capsules 50 mg: The usual adult dosage for oral use is 3 capsules (150 mg of teprenone) daily in three divided doses after meals. The dosage may be adjusted depending on the patient’s age and symptoms. Fine Granules 10%: The usual adult dosage for oral use is 1.5 g (150 mg of teprenone) daily in three divided doses after meals. The dosage may be adjusted depending on the patient’s age and symptoms.

Route of Administration: Oral

In Vitro Use Guide

Human melanoma cell lines G361, SK-MEL-2, and SK-MEL-5 were treated with GGA (Tetraprenylacetone) at various doses (1-100uM). GGA significantly reduced the viability of G361, SK-MEL-2, and SK-MEL-5 human melanoma cells at concentrations above 10uM.
