  2. ATP Synthase Apoptosis
  3. Methyl pyruvate

Methyl pyruvate is a methyl ester derivative of pyruvic acid. Methyl pyruvate induces insulin release and membrane depolarization. Methyl pyruvate rescues proteasome damage and nuclear localization of TdP-43 caused by overexpression of σ1RE102Q by enhancing ATP synthesis. Methyl pyruvate selectively protects normal lung fibroblasts from cell death induced by Irinotecan (HY-16562). Methyl pyruvate promotes apoptosis and necrosis in cancer cells and downregulates angiogenesis and cell cycle pathways. Methyl pyruvate is an effective substrate for dihydrodihydrogen dehydrogenase.

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.
