Description
Cystemustine is a DNA inhibitor (a chloroethyl nitrosourea, CENU) . Cystemustine can cause DNA cross-linking, thereby inhibiting the proliferation of tumor cells. Cystemustine can also exert cytotoxic effects by interfering with the cell cycle, inducing cell re-differentiation, and altering phospholipid metabolism. Cystemustine exhibits high anti-tumor activity and a relatively short plasma half-life in mice. Cystemustine can be used for the study of various malignant tumors, including melanoma, glioma, renal cancer, head and neck cancer, and colorectal cancer, etc[1][2][3][4][5][6].
