(5E)-7-Oxozeaenol is a resorcylic acid lactone that has been found in the fungus MSX 63935 and has enzyme inhibitory and anticancer activities.
1,2 It inhibits TGF-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK-1; IC
50 = 1.3 μM).
1 (5E)-7-Oxozeaenol inhibits proliferation of MCF-7, H460, SF-268, HT-29, and MDA-MB-435 human cancer cells with IC
50 values of 4.9, 1.2, 5.6, 4.4, and 5.5 μM, respectively.
