PAC-1
Product Specifications
Background
PAC-1 is a procaspase-activating compound, directly activating procaspase-3, producing caspase-3, EC50=0.22 μM.1 It is less potent at activating procaspase-7, EC50=4.5 μM. It induces apoptosis in a variety of cancer cell lines. The mechanism of activation involves sequestering inhibitory zinc ions thus allowing procaspase-3 to autoactivate.2 Sensitizes cancer cells to various chemotherapeutic agents.3
