MedKoo Cat#: 206758 | Name: Sarmustine

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Sarmustine, also known as SarCNU, is an alkylating agent potentially for the treatment of recurrent malignant glioma. SarCNU inhibits prostate carcinoma cell growth via p53-dependent and p53-independent pathways. SarCNU mediates selection of P140K methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase transduced human CD34(+) cells in vitro.
