Methyl caffeate is a phenylpropanoid, antibacterial agent, and Apoptosis-inducing agent. Methyl caffeate can be isolated from the flowers of peach Prunus persica (L.). Methyl caffeate upregulates the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins Bid, Bax and p53, and downregulates the expression of anti-apoptotic protein BCL-2. Methyl caffeate downregulates SASP factors. Methyl caffeate enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Methyl caffeate inhibits the growth of Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria, fungi, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains. Methyl caffeate can be used in studies related to breast cancer, type 2 diabetes, and tuberculosis[1][2][3][4].
