Produktinformation

• Name: Tetrahydrouridine
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Tetrahydrouridine is a pyrimidine nucleoside that has been shown to have inhibitory properties in clinical pathology. Tetrahydrouridine is a natural product derived from the amino acid histidine and is found in the cells of many living organisms. It is believed that tetrahydrouridine may be useful as an adjuvant to radiation therapy, and it has been shown to reduce the toxicity of chemotherapy drugs, such as decitabine and Ara-C. Tetrahydrouridine inhibits enzymes involved in DNA methylation, which can lead to cancer cell death.br>Tetrahydrouridine also has inhibitory effects on enzymes that produce cytidine from uracil, which can help prevent the formation of cancerous cells.br>Tetrahydrouridine inhibits deaminase activity, which produces uracil from cytosine. This inhibition prevents the production of uracil-cytosine
