Selenocystine, CAS 2897-21-4

Product Description: Selenocystine is a broad-spectrum anti-cancer agent. Selenocystine induces DNA damage in HepG2 cells, particularly in the form of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). Selenocystine exhibits great promise as a therapeutic or adjuvant agent targeting DNA repair for cancer treatment[1].

Applications: Cancer-programmed cell death

Formula: C6H12N2O4Se2
