Product Information

• Name: Bleomycin A2 chloride
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Bleomycin A2 chloride is an anticancer drug that is used in the treatment of various types of tumors. It induces apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in cancer cells by inhibiting DNA synthesis and causing DNA strand breaks. Bleomycin A2 chloride also acts as an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases, which are enzymes involved in regulating cell division. This drug is excreted primarily through urine and has been shown to be effective against a wide range of cancer cell lines. Bleomycin A2 chloride is a protein analog that binds to DNA and causes damage through the production of reactive oxygen species. It has been investigated as a potential cancer treatment due to its ability to inhibit multiple kinases involved in cancer progression, including Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells.
