Product Description: Methapyrilene is a histamine antagonist, a pyridine chemical with anticholinergic activity. Methapyrilene can cause target organ-specific epigenetic alterations, such as a decrease in DNA methylation levels. Methapyrilene induces hepatocellular carcinoma in rats[1][2].
Applications: Cancer-programmed cell death
Formula: C14H19N3S
