Pifithrin-α, p-Nitro, Cyclic
Pifithrin-α, p-Nitro, Cyclic (PFN-α) is a cell-permeable, active-form inhibitor of the p53 tumor suppressor protein. It is widely used in research to transiently inhibit p53-dependent apoptosis and cell cycle arrest, facilitating studies in neurobiology, oncology, and ischemia-reperfusion injury across both in vitro and in vivo models.
