Product Description
Carmofur is an inhibitor of acid ceramidase (IC50 = 79 nM for the rat enzyme) and a derivative of 5-flurouracil (Item No. ). It reduces acid ceramidase activity in a dose- and time-dependent manner and induces intracellular accumulation of various ceramide species, including C18 ceramide (Item No. ), C16 ceramide (Item No. ), and C14 ceramide (Item No. ) in SW403 colon and LNCaP prostate cancer cells. Carmofur induces apoptosis in SW403 cells without inhibiting DNA synthesis (IC50 = 1,212 mm for human thymidylate synthetase). It also reduces acid ceramidase activity and increases ceramide accumulation in mouse lung and brain when administered at doses of 10 and 30 mg/kg.
WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
