GENE - CHEMICAL INTERACTIONS REPORT

RGD ID: 1342674
Species: Homo sapiens
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: PPARGC1A
Name: PPARG coactivator 1 alpha
Acc ID: CHEBI:82621
Term: monascin
Definition: An organic heterotricyclic compound that is 3a,4,8,9a-tetrahydro-2H-furo[3,2-g][2]benzopyran-2,9(3H)-dione that is substituted at positions 3, 6, and 9a by hexanoyl, (1E)-prop-1-en-1-yl and methyl groups, respectively (the 3S,3aR,9aR diastereoisomer). One of the azaphilonoid pigments in extracts of Monascus pilosus-fermented rice (red-mould rice), it is a potent inhibitor of carcinogenesis measured against chemical- or UV-initiated, phorbol-promoted mouse skin tumours.
Chemical ID: MESH:C517880
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
