10 mg

Cat. No.: 41-L99

$99.00

RG108 is a potent and specific DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitor. It causes demethylation and reactivation of tumor suppressor genes and can be used to enhance reprogramming. RG108 has been found to inhibit human tumor cell line proliferation and increases doubling time in culture.
