RU28362

RU28362 is a potent and selective glucocorticoid agonist. RU28362 increases the Bnip3 mRNA levels in neurons. RU28362 inhibits adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) and corticosterone secretion[1][2]. RU28362 is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.
