    Product Description

    Kinetin riboside is a purine derivative and nucleoside with anticancer activity.1 It induces the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), cellular ATP depletion, and apoptosis in HepG2 cells. Kinetin riboside (10 µM) reduces cyclin D1 and cyclin D2 levels, as well as induces cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase and apoptosis in patient-derived multiple myeloma cells.2 In vivo, kinetin riboside (85 mg/kg) reduces tumor growth in OCI-My5 and RPMI-8226 myeloma mouse xenograft models.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
