DMAPT | NFkB inhibitor

DMAPT (870677-05-7) is a water soluble analog of the natural plant product parthenolide (Cat.# 10-2096) which suppresses in vivo tumor growth of two tobacco-associated neoplasms, lung and bladder cancer. It inhibits NFκB and stimulates the formation of reactive oxygen species which induced the activation of JNK¹. In non-small cell lung cancers DMAPT inhibits NFκB and DNA double-strand break repair².
