Cuproptosis Inducer

Cuproptosis Inducers (4):

Cat. No. Product Name Effect Purity
  • HY-12040
    Elesclomol
    		Inducer 99.80%
    Elesclomol (STA-4783) is a potent copper ionophore and promotes copper-dependent cell death (cuproptosis). Elesclomol specifically binds ferredoxin 1 (FDX1) α2/α3 helices and β5 strand. Elesclomol inhibits FDX1-mediated Fe-S cluster biosynthesis. Elesclomol is an oxidative stress inducer that induces cancer cell apoptosis. Elesclomol is a reactive oxygen species (ROS) inducer. Elesclomol can be used for Menkes and associated disorders of hereditary copper deficiency research.
  • HY-B0240
    Disulfiram
    		Inducer 99.92%
    Disulfiram (Tetraethylthiuram disulfide) is a specific inhibitor of aldehyde-dehydrogenase (ALDH1), used for the treatment of chronic alcoholism by producing an acute sensitivity to alcohol. Disulfiram inhibits gasdermin D (GSDMD) pore formation in liposomes and inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis and IL-1β secretion in human and mouse cells. Disulfiram, a copper ion carrier, with Cu2+ increases intracellular ROS levels and induces cuproptosis.
  • HY-B0572
    Zinc Pyrithione
    		Inducer 99.49%
    Zinc Pyrithione is an antifungal and antibacterial agent disrupting membrane transport by blocking the proton pump. Zinc Pyrithione is also a copper ionophore that delivers copper into cells and is a useful tool for studying cuproptosis.
  • HY-156376
    Cu(II)-Elesclomol
    		Inducer 99.99%
    Cu(II)-Elesclomol is a Cu2+ complex of Elesclomol (HY-12040). Cu(II)-Elesclomol induces cuproptosis. Cu(II)-Elesclomol also inducesapoptosis, causes a G1 cell cycle block and induces DNA double strand breaks in K562 cells. Cu(II)-Elesclomol also weakly inhibits DNA topoisomerase I. Cu(II)-Elesclomol has anticancer activity.
