AK 2123 Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Sanazole (AK-2123) is a hypoxic cell radiosensitizer. Sanazole enhances radiation-induced DNA strand breaks. In mouse fibroblast tumors, Sanazole increases nuclear condensation and fragmentation, as well as elevates caspase-3 activity, thereby enhancing radiation-induced apoptosis. These characteristics make Sanazole a promising candidate for research in tumor therapy[1][2].
