General description

A cell-permeable piperazinyl-quinazolinone compound that exhibits oncogene-selective lethality. Shown to bind mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC) and alter its gating; rapidly induce an oxidative, non-apoptotic cell death in several human tumors harboring activating mutations in the RAS-RAF-MEK signaling (EC50 = 6.0 µM in BJ-TERT/LT/ST/RASV12 cells).

Packaging

Packaged under inert gas

Warning
