WR-1065 is a cytoprotective cell-permeable ROS scavenge and an active metabolite of Amifostine.
WR-1065 is cytoprotective cell-permeable reactive oxygen species scavenger and p53 activator and re-activator. Recently shown to have antiretroviral activity and an active metabolite of Amifostine which selectively protects normal tissues from the damaging effects of anti-neoplastic radiation therapy.
WR-1065 is the active metabolite of the prodrug amifostine, generated by alkaline phosphatase. It is found to accumulate in many epithelial tissues. WR-1065 protects cellular membranes and DNA from free radical induced damage.
