MedKoo Cat#: 145035 | Name: Pristane

Description:

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

Pristane is a hydrocarbon oil that is used as a chemical carcinogen to induce tumorigenesis in mice as well as arthritis and lupus nephritis in rats. Pristane induces IL-4-producing CD138+ regulatory plasma cell generation and M2 polarization to protect atherosclerosis development.
