Application

Cafestol acetate has been used to determine the effects of coffee on heat shock response (HSR).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cafestol is a coffee-specific diterpene. It has anti-carcinogenic and anti-inflammatory activities. Cafestol stimulates apoptosis in cells associated with colorectal and renal cancer (Caki cells). It is used to study mechanisms of anti-oxidation related to hydrogen peroxide induced oxidative stress and DNA damage. Cafestol increases the level of glutathione (GSH), by stimulating γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase. It acts as a chemopreventive agent by inducing cytochrome P-450.

Other Notes

Furan-containing diterpene from green coffee beans.

5-Dimethylaminopropylamino-8-hydroxytriazoloacridinone (C-1305) is a promising antitumor compound developed in our laboratory. A better understanding of its metabolic transformations is still needed to explain the multidirectional mechanism of pharmacological action of triazoloacridinone derivatives at all. Thus, the aim of the current

Epidemiological studies have found an inverse association between coffee consumption and the risk of liver cancer. Animal data support such a chemopreventive effect of coffee. Substantial research has been devoted to the identification of coffee components that may be responsible

Cafestol, one of the major compounds in coffee beans, has been reported for its tumor cell growth inhibitory activity and anti-carcinogenic activity, although the mechanism of action is poorly understood. In the present study, we investigated the effect of cafestol
