Produktinformation

• Name: 10-Hydroxycamptothecin
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 10-Hydroxycamptothecin is an alkaloid, which is derived from the bark and stem of the Camptotheca acuminata tree, commonly known as the "Happy Tree." This compound is a potent topoisomerase I inhibitor. Its mode of action involves binding to the topoisomerase I-DNA complex, stabilizing it and thus preventing the re-ligation of DNA single-strand breaks. This interruption in the DNA replication process leads to DNA damage, ultimately triggering apoptosis in rapidly dividing cells.
