Product Information
Name:4-Nitropyrene
Brand:Biosynth
Description:4-Nitropyrene is a potent carcinogen that binds to the heme of cytochrome P450 and inhibits its activity. This chemical has been shown to inhibit the metabolism of nitroarenes, which are compounds that have been shown to cause cancer in animals. 4-Nitropyrene also produces genotoxic effects on cells in culture by causing DNA damage, including strand breaks, adduct formation, and the formation of pyrimidine dimers. 4-Nitropyrene acts as a tumor promoter in animal models by inducing lung tumors and inhibiting cell differentiation. This chemical is metabolized extensively with metabolic profiles being dependent on the tissue type examined. The analytical methods for this chemical include gas chromatography/mass spectrometry or liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry. Nitrite ion (NO2) is an important metabolite that can be measured using a colorimetric assay.
