Utreloxastat | 99.32% | Utreloxastat (PTC857) is an orally active and blood-brain barrier-permeable 15-lipooxygenase inhibitor. Utreloxastat is a weak inhibitor of CYP1A2 and 2B6 with an IC50 of >5.3 μM. Utreloxastat reduces oxidative stress and inhibits the consumption of reduced glutathione and ferroptosis. Utreloxastat can be used in the study of neurodegenerative diseases characterized by high levels of oxidative stress and mitochondrial pathology, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosisc. | ||||||||||||||||||||

Embelin (Standard) | ≥98% | Embelin (Standard) is the analytical standard of Embelin. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Embelin (Embelic acid), a potent, nonpeptidic XIAP inhibitor (IC50=4.1 μM), inhibits cell growth, induces apoptosis, and activates caspase-9 in prostate cancer cells with high levels of XIAP. Embelin blocks NF-kappaB signaling pathway leading to suppression of NF-kappaB-regulated antiapoptotic and metastatic gene products. Embelin also induces autophagic and apoptotic cell death in human oral squamous cell carcinoma cells. | ||||||||||||||||||||

Idebenone (Standard) | 96.98% | Idebenone (Standard) is the analytical standard of Idebenone. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Idebenone, a well-appreciated mitochondrial protectant, exhibits protective efficacy against neurotoxicity and can be used for the research of Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease. Idebenone (oxidised form) has a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the enzymatic metabolism of arachidonic acid in astroglial homogenates (IC50=16.65 μM). Idebenone, a coenzyme Q10 analog and an antioxidant, induces apoptotic cell death in the human dopaminergic neuroblastoma SHSY-5Y cells. Idebenone quickly crosses the blood-brain barrier. | ||||||||||||||||||||
