Phytic acid (IP6), novel broad spectrum anti-neoplastic agent: a systematic review
Complementary Therapies in Medicine, 2002 Phytic acid or IP6 has been extensively studied in animals and is being promoted as an anti-cancer agent in health food stores. It is naturally found in legumes, wheat bran, and soy foods. It is believed to be the active ingredient that gives these substances their cancer fighting abilities.

HIV needs the small molecule IP6 to build its capsid
, 2022 The retrovirus Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type-1 (HIV-1) infects cells of the immune system causing their depletion and resulting in the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). The viral capsid protein (CA) is essential for replication. Upon budding of a new HIV particle, CA is part of the Gag polyprotein which assembles into an immature virus ...

Molecular mechanisms for the antitumor activity of inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6).
Cancer genomics & proteomics, 2007 Inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6), a naturally occurring polyphosphorylated carbohydrate, has been reported to have significant in vivo and in vitro anticancer activity against numerous tumors. However, the molecular mechanism of the anticancer effect of IP6 has not been fully elucidated.Using K-562 human leukemia cells we analysed the induction of the ...
