Bz 423
Chemical Name: 7-Chloro-1,3-dihydro-5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-methyl-3-(2-naphthalenylmethyl)-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one
Purity: ≥98%
Biological Activity
Bz 423 is an ATP synthase inhibitor (IC50 ~5 μM). Binds the oligomycin sensitivity conferring protein (OSCP) component of mitochondrial F1F0-ATPase in vitro resulting in generation of superoxide and apoptosis. Kills primary B and T cell in mice in vivo. Suppresses autoimmunity and prolongs survival in mouse lupus model.Technical Data
