59061-53-9
Chemical Structure
ZIF-8
Synonym(s): 2-Methylimidazole zinc salt
- CAS No.: 59061-53-9
- Formula:C8H10N4Zn
- Molecular Weight:227.59
IUPAC Name: bis(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)zinc
InChIKey: MFLKDEMTKSVIBK-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: CC1=NC=CN1[Zn]N2C=CN=C2C
Biological Activity: ZIF-8 (2-Methylimidazole zinc salt) is a caspase-1/Gasdermin D activator and a pH- and stimulus-responsive inducer of drug release, which serves as a highly efficient drug delivery carrier. ZIF-8 is a metal-organic framework (MOF). ZIF-8 activates the caspase-1/Gasdermin D-dependent pyroptosis pathway, induces pyroptosis, necrosis and immunogenic cell death, initiates in situ anti-tumor immunity, reprograms the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and inhibits tumor proliferation. ZIF-8 is applicable to related research on multiple cancers including colorectal cancer and breast cancer[1][2].
