Cancer Stem Cells Compound Library

With the progress of modern cancer therapy, the life of cancer patients has been extended. However, after initial treatment and recovery, the development of secondary tumors often leads to cancer recurrence. Cancer stem cells are a small number of cells that tumor growth and reproduction depend on.

Cancer stem cells have strong self-renewal ability, which is the direct cause of tumor occurrence. In addition, cancer stem cells also have the ability to differentiate into different cell types, playing a crucial role in tumor metastasis and development. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy induced DNA damage and apoptosis are common cancer treatments. However, cancer stem cells can effectively protect cancer cells from apoptosis by activating DNA repair ability. Cancer stem cells are regarded as the key "seed" of tumor occurrence, development, metastasis and recurrence. Since its first discovery in leukemia in 1994, cancer stem cells have been considered a promising therapeutic target for cancer treatment.

MCE supplies a unique collection of 2116 compounds targeting key proteins in cancer stem cells. MCE Cancer Stem Cells Compound Library is a useful tool for cancer stem cells related research and anti-cancer drug development.

MCE Cancer Stem Cells Compound Library can be supplied as pre-dissolved Solutions or Solid. For pre-dissolved solutions in this library, there are 2058 compounds supplied in 10 mM solution, 56 compounds supplied in 2 mM solution and 2 compounds supplied in 3 mg/mL solution.

For pre-dissolved solutions, 10 mM for compounds with the solubility not lower than 10 mM, 2 mM for compounds with solubility between 2 mM and 10 mM, and 3 mg/mL for compounds with unconfirmed molecular weight and solubility not lower than 3 mg/mL.
