Biological Activity: Nitrefazole (EMD-15700) is an aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) inhibitor. Nitrefazole specifically inhibits human liver ALDH I and human erythrocyte ALDH isozymes, but does not alter the activity of human liver ALDH II or human placental ALDH. Nitrefazole effectively promotes exosome secretion in prostate cancer cells by increasing the levels of Alix, nSMase2, Rab27a and p-ERK. Nitrefazole can be used in studies related to prostate cancer[1][2][3].
