Description

Captopril-cysteine disulfide is an inhibitor that has been shown to induce apoptosis in cancer cells. It is a potent anticancer agent and has been found in human urine. This compound is an analog of capsaicin, which is known for its anticancer properties. Captopril-cysteine disulfide inhibits the activity of protein kinases, which are enzymes involved in cell growth and division. It has been shown to be effective against a variety of cancer types, including those of the lung, breast, and prostate. In Chinese hamster ovary cells, this compound inhibited the growth of tumor cells by up to 50%. Captopril-cysteine disulfide may have potential as a therapeutic agent for cancer treatment.
