EF24

[Synonym ]:
EF-24
(3E,5E)-3,5-bis[(2-fluorophenyl)methylene]-4-piperidinone

Biological Activity

[Description]:

EF24 is a curcumin analogue with greater anti-tumor efficacy and oral bioavailability via deactivation of the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). EF24 treatment increases the levels of activated caspase 3 and 9, and decreases the phosphorylated forms of MEK1 and ERK[1][2].
