Streptozocin
Product Description
Streptozocin is an anti-tumor agent reserved as a last resort against metastatic pancreatic islet cells. Streptozocin functions by adding methyl and alkyl groups to DNA and interfering with normal base pairing. This damages the DNA and causes a decrease in tumor size. Streptozocin enters cells via the glucose transport protein, GLUT2. It is capable of causing vasorelaxation, NCOAT inhibition, and donating nitric oxide (NO).
