    Product Description

    CPI-455 is an inhibitor of the lysine demethylase 5 family (KDM5A-D).1 CPI-455 binds to the demethylase active site and selectively inhibits KDM5A-D (IC50s = 2-10 nM) over KDM2-4, 6, and 7 family members (IC50s = 1 to >25 μM). It increases histone H3K4me2/3 methylation in vitro and decreases the number of drug-tolerant cells in PC9 non-small cell lung, M14 melanoma, and SKBR3 breast cancer cell populations. CPI-455 also reduces growth of glioblastoma cells resistant to temozolomide (TMZ; Item No. 14163) in a dose-dependent manner.2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
