Methotrexate di-n-butyl ester
Methotrexate di-n-butyl ester is a cell-permeable prodrug of methotrexate, functioning as an antimetabolite and immunosuppressant by inhibiting dihydrofolate reductase. This blockade of tetrahydrofolate synthesis impairs DNA replication, making it a tool for studying anticancer and immunosuppressive mechanisms in both cellular and animal models.
