MeIm
Product Specifications
UNSPSC Description
MeIm (compound 7) is a high-affinity PCSK9 targeting peptide mimetic with cholesterol-lowering activity. MeIm increases cellular uptake of LDL (EC50=6.04 μM) by inhibiting the binding of PCSK9 to LDLR (IC50=11.2 μM). MeIm can be used in the study of cardiovascular diseases[1][2].
