Geranylgeranoic acid (GGA) is an isoprenoid that has been found in S. chinensis and has anticancer activity.1 It induces apoptosis in Huh7 and PLC/PRF/5 human hepatoma cells and MLE-10 transformed mouse hepatocytes, but not primary mouse hepatocytes, when used at concentrations ranging from 1 to 20 µM. GGA (10 µM) induces apoptosis in Huh7 cells via loss of the mitochondrial membrane potential and activation of interleukin-1β-converting enzyme (ICE) and cysteine protease precursor 32 (CPP32).2 It also inhibits lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1; IC50 = 46.97 µM).3
