product name Tasisulam
Description: Tasisulam is an antitumor agent that induced growth arrest and apoptosis of human solid tumours. In human malignant hematopoietic cell lines, tasisulam inhibited cells growth with ED50 values of 5, 7, 12, 13, 21 and 31 μM for BALL1, HL60, RCH, NCEB1, SP49 and Daudi cell lines, respectively. Tasisulam induced growth arrest in a dose-dependent way. Also, tasisulam caused induction of ROS, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and induction of apoptosis. In HL60 and U937 cells, tasisulam induce granulocytic/monocytic differentiation.
