    Product Description

    Se-Aspirin is a hybrid of selenium and a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that has been shown to reduce the viability of different cancer cell lines, particularly colorectal cancer (CRC) cells (IC50 = 3.4 µM).1 It can inhibit the cell cycle in G1 and G2/M phases and induce apoptosis by activating caspase 3/7 and PARP cleavage.1 Long-term exposure to Se-Aspirin is reported to cause an increase in intracellular reactive oxygen species levels in CRC cells.1

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
