EPI-743
Product Specifications
UNSPSC Description
EPI-743 (Vatiquinone; α-Tocotrienol quinone; PTC-743; NCT04378075) is a potent cellular oxidative stress protectant, inhibits ferroptosis in cells, which could be used for the study for mitochondrial diseases. EPI-743 is a synthetic analog of vitamin E with oral activity, targets repletion of reduced intracellular glutathione[1][2].
