Product Description: NNK is a nicotine-nitrosated derivative. NNK simultaneously stimulates Bcl2 phosphorylation exclusively at Ser70 and c-Myc at Thr58 and Ser62 through activation of both ERK1/2 and PKCα[1]. NNK induces survival and proliferation of human lung cancer cells. NNK can be used for lung cancer mice model structure[2].
Applications: Cancer-Kinase/protease
Formula: C10H13N3O2
