    Product Description

    M606 is an iron chelator and N-Myc inhibitor.1 It binds iron at a 3:1 ratio. M606 inhibits MYCN transactivation in a reporter assay using SHR6-17 neuroblastoma cells in a concentration-dependent manner. It induces cytotoxicity, decreases N-Myc levels, and increases HIF-1α levels in BE(2)-C and LA-N-1 neuroblastoma cells, effects that can be reversed by ferric iron. M606 (25 mg/kg) increases survival in the TH-MYCN transgenic mouse model of neuroblastoma. It also inhibits P. aeruginosa biofilm formation (EC50 = 19.21 µM).2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
