Description

Diethyl-2,2'-carbocyanine iodide (DCCI) is a reactive dye that has been used for the treatment of xenograft tumors. DCCI is an inhibitor of protein synthesis, which may be due to its ability to bind to calcium ions and block the active sites of enzymes or by inhibition of methyl transferases. It has also shown anti-cancer activity in mice with leukemia. The mechanism of action for DCCI is not completely understood, but it does not have any significant effect on normal tissues.
