Infobox references

Phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) is a phorbol ester which is one of the constituents of croton oil. As an activator of protein kinase C, it is a weak tumor promoter compared to 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate.[1]

Tritiated PDBu has been used to study the way that phorbol esters bind to the protein kinase C receptor.[2]

Metabolism

The enzyme phorbol-diester hydrolase originally characterised from murine liver hydrolyses PDBu to remove one specific butyrate ester, giving phorbol 13-butanoate and butyric acid. It also acts on 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate.[3]

Only phorbol diesters are tumor promoters, so this reaction inactivates them.[1][4]
