Beschreibung

Z-Val-Ala-Asp fluoromethyl ketone (Z-VAD-fmk) is a pan-caspase inhibitor that is widely used in research studies. It is a synthetic compound that mimics the structure of natural caspase substrates and irreversibly inhibits caspase activity. Z-VAD-fmk has been shown to have anti-apoptotic properties, preventing programmed cell death in various experimental models. This compound is commonly used in studies investigating the role of caspases in cell death pathways and as a tool for evaluating the efficacy of potential therapeutic interventions. Z-VAD-fmk has also been studied for its potential as an adjuvant therapy in various diseases, including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders.
