Phorbol is a toxic diterpene compound extracted from the seeds of Euphorbiaceae plants. It has high biological activity and has many pharmacological effects such as promoting tumor, inflammation and immune regulation. It activates protein kinase C ( PKC ), a key enzyme in cell signal transduction and regulation, and its toxicity is attributed to its ability to interfere with normal cellular processes.
