Mitoguazone | CAS#459-86-9 | MedKoo Biosciences

MedKoo Cat#: 205979 | Name: Mitoguazone

Description:

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

Mitoguazone is a guanylhydrazone with potential antineoplastic activity. Mitoguazone competitively inhibits S-adenosyl-L-methionine decarboxylase (SAMD), an enzyme involved in the synthesis of polyamines, resulting in decreased proliferation of tumor cells, antimitochondrial effects, and p53-independent apoptosis. Polyamines, specifically spermine and spermidine, are essential for thymidine kinase production, DNA synthesis, and cell proliferation. Check for active clinical trials or closed clinical trials using this agent. (NCI Thesaurus).
