Description

Leyk is an orally active Cysteine derivative. Leyk stimulates bone marrow hematopoiesis. Leyk exerts a significant protective effect against cyclophosphamide-induced leukopenia. Leyk can be used in studies related to thrombocytopenia and leukopenia[1][2][3].

In Vivo

Leucogen (20 mg/kg; p.o.; daily; 1 week) exerts significant protective effects against cyclophosphamide-induced leucopenia in male ICR mice, with a network analysis Z-score of 10.823, and restores hematopoietic parameters including white blood cell counts, platelet counts, bone marrow cell viability, and colony formation, while normalizing cytokine levels and white blood cell differential percentages[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: ICR mice (male, 18-22 g, cyclophosphamide-induced)[3]
Dosage: 20 mg/kg
Administration: p.o.; daily; 1 week
Result: Restored the percentage of eosinophils to normal levels.
Increased the percentage of basophils.
Increased peripheral white blood cell counts.
Increased peripheral platelet counts.
Increased bone marrow nuclear cell counts.
Enhanced bone marrow nuclear cell viability.
Promoted bone marrow mononuclear cell colony formation.
Reversed cyclophosphamide-induced elevated serum G-CSF and IL-6 levels to near-normal values.
Exhibited a network analysis Z-score of 10.823, indicating significant anti-leucopenia activity.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
