    Product Description

    YL-939 is an inhibitor of ferroptosis.1 It inhibits erastin-induced increases in ferrous iron levels and ferroptosis in ES-2 ovarian cancer cells when used at a concentration of 0.3 µM. YL-939 (10 µM) increases nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4) and ferritin levels in ES-2 cells. In vivo, YL-939 (3 mg/kg) decreases serum alanine transaminase (Alt) and aspartate aminotransferase (Ast) levels, reduces liver and serum malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, and increases liver ferritin levels in a mouse model of acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
