CAS: 5274-70-4

Ref. 3D-FN15275

Product Information

• Name: 3-Nitrosalicylaldehyde
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Nitrosalicylaldehyde is an oxidizing agent that reacts with DNA in vitro to form DNA adducts. 3-Nitrosalicylaldehyde also has antioxidative properties, which can be demonstrated by its ability to inhibit the oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) in vivo. This compound has been shown to activate the metalloproteinase MT2 receptor, which is involved in the regulation of blood pressure and heart function. 3-Nitrosalicylaldehyde is metabolized by hydrolysis and reduction to form a neutral product, which has been shown to have antidiabetic effects on mice.
