Lumichrome (Standard)

Lumichrome (Standard) is the analytical standard of Lumichrome. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Lumichrome, a photodegradation product of Riboflavin, is an endogenous compound in humans. Lumichrome inhibits human lung cancer cell growth and induces apoptosis via a p53-dependent mechanism. Lumichrom is the inhibitor for AKT/β-catenin signaling pathway. Lumichrom is the inhibitor for AKT/β-catenin signaling pathway[1][2].
