Product Information

• Name: Leu-Leu-Leu-OH
• Synonyms: L-Leucyl-L-leucyl-L-leucine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Leu-Leu-Leu-OH is a pentapeptide that is used in cancer treatment to inhibit the growth of cancer cells. It prevents the production of proteins and, as a result, cell division. Leu-Leu-Leu-OH has been shown to be effective against tumor cells with an antibody that binds to the surface of cells. The monoclonal antibody is taken up by the cancer cells through receptor mediated endocytosis, which leads to inhibition of protein synthesis and cell death.
