Xanthopterin Hydrate Inhibitor

Xanthopterin hydrate is the main component of the yellow granule in the Oriental hornet bear wings.

Xanthopterin (XPT), an unconjugated pteridine compound, affects cell growth and differentiation. When injected into rats, XPT has caused changes that have been interpreted as renal growth and hypertrophy.

Small volumes of Xanthopterin Hydrate, inhibitor vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

MBS5754416 is an inhibitor targeting Xanthopterin Hydrate.
