Dopal, CAS 5707-55-1

Product Description: Dopal is an aldehyde that can be generated in Parkinson's disease by enzymatic degradation of dopamine. Dopal can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), and triggers aggregation of α-synuclein. Dopal elicits α-synuclein accumulation and hampers α-synuclein clearance in primary neurons[1][2].

Applications: Neuroscience-Neurodegeneration

Formula: C8H8O3
