Lupulon, also known as Lupulone, is a beta-acid that has been found in the hop plant, H. lupulus, and has diverse biological activities, including antibacterial, antioxidant, and anticarcinogenic properties. Lupulone is active against B. subtilis and S. aureus as well as T. b. brucei and L. m. mexicana. It scavenges 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals and reduces proliferation, migration, and capillary tube formation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Lupulone also activates the extrinsic apoptotic death pathway in SW480 and SW620 colon cancer cells.
