Biological Activity
Thioredoxin reductase 2 (TrxR2)[1]
MitoCur-1 exhibits selective cytotoxicity against HepG2 and L02 cells with IC50s of 1.4 μM and 9.1 μM, respectively[1].
MitoCur-1 (10 μM; 12 h) generates ROS and depletes GSH selectively in HepG2 cells over L02 cells[1].
MitoCur-1 (10 μM; 24 h) arrests cell cycle at G0/G1 phase, inhibits cyclin protein expression[1].
