Poricoic acid A(F) shows anti-inflammatory activity. It is a potential whitening active ingredient, it exhibits good inhibitory effects on the activities of monophenolase and diphenolase in mushroom tyrosinase, as well as a certain inhibitory effect on tyrosinase in B16 cells.

Poricoic acid A is a natural antitumor agent and boosts melatonin’s AKI-to-CKD transition block by modulating Gas6/Axl/NFκB/Nrf2.

Poricoic acid A

Poricoic acid A is a trifluoroacetic acid derivative that inhibits the growth of bacteria. It has been shown to be effective against hk-2, β-catenin, and lps-stimulated raw264.7 cells, which are all cancer cell lines. Poricoic acid A also inhibits the production of PGE2 levels in these cells. This compound has also been shown to inhibit the growth of HL60 cells and hl-60 cells stimulated by LPS, both of which are leukaemic cell lines. Poricoic acid A may also inhibit the growth of cancer cells by preventing the binding of growth factor-β1 to its receptors on these cells. It has been shown to bind with high affinity to pachymic acid, a lipophilic molecule that binds with high affinity to proteins such as β-catenin and actin filaments.
