Product Description: Piclidenoson (IB-MECA) is a first-in-class, orally active and selective A3 adenosine receptor (A3AR) agonist. Piclidenoson exhibits antiproliferative effect and induces apoptosis in different cancer cell types like melanoma, leukemia. Piclidenoson can be used for the research of autoimmune inflammatory diseases and COVID-19[1][2][3][4].
Applications: Cancer-programmed cell death
Formula: C18H19IN6O4
