Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information N1,N11-diethylnorspermine induces SSAT mRNA and activity Mus musculus
additional information N1,N11-diethylnorspermine induces SSAT mRNA and activity Homo sapiens

Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine development of SSAT induction strategies to circumvent the ability of tumor cells to escape the antitumor activity of polyamine inhibitors such as alpha-difluoromethylornithine by salvaging exogenous polyamines Homo sapiens
pharmacology compounds capable of potently inducing SSAT and having favorable pharmacological properties in animals are potential anticancer agents Homo sapiens

Cloned(Commentary)
