Beschreibung

Dihydroethidium is a fluorescent probe that has been used to study the effects of reactive oxygen species on the mitochondrial membrane potential. It also acts as a cyclase inhibitor, preventing the formation of cAMP and cGMP. Dihydroethidium has been shown to be an effective chemoattractant in a model system for myocardial infarct and atherosclerotic lesions. This agent is capable of inducing pluripotent cells into cardiomyocyte-like cells. Dihydroethidium is not toxic to healthy cells and is relatively nontoxic to animals. It has been shown to have antioxidative properties, which may be due to its ability to scavenge superoxide radicals.
