EPI-001 (Standard)

EPI-001 (Standard) is the analytical standard of EPI-001. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. EPI-001, a selective inhibitor of Androgen Receptor (AR), targets transactivation unit 5 (Tau-5) of the AR. EPI-001 can inhibit transactivation of the AR amino-terminal domain (NTD), with an IC50 of ~6 μM. EPI-001 is also a selective modulator of PPARγ. EPI-001 is active against castration-resistant prostate cancer[1][2][3].
