Applications N-Cbz-L-Leucine is an N-Cbz-protected form of L-Leucine (L330110). L-Leucine is an essential amino acid that induces a sharp decrease in blood glucose levels in individuals with idiopathic familial hypoglycemia, but has no known effects on normal, healthy individuals. L-Leucine also acts as an Isoleucine (I820210) antagonist in the rat, causing delays in growth, and is a potential tumour promoter of bladder cancer.

Applications N-Cbz-D-methionine is an N-Cbz-protected form of D-Methionine (M260550). D-Methionine is an isomer of L-Methionine (M260440), and is known to be a cytoprotectant against Cisplatin (C499500), an anticancer agent. D-Methionine is also used to prevent noise- and drug-induced hearing loss, as well as hair loss (all of which may also be caused by Cisplatin or aminoglycosides).
