Product Description: Amifostine thiol (WR-1065) is an active metabolite of the cytoprotector Amifostine (HY-B0639). Amifostine thiol is a cytoprotective agent with radioprotective abilities. Amifostine thiol activates p53 through a JNK-dependent signaling pathway[1][2][3].
Applications: Cancer-Kinase/protease
Formula: C5H14N2S
