Description:
CuET, a metabolite of Disulfiram, is a cuproptosis and ferroptosis inducer with anti-tumor activity. CuET interacts directly with polyunsaturated phospholipids to generate free radicals, leading to lipid peroxidation. CuET induces cuproptosis via excessive copper accumulation, leading to lipoylated protein aggregation and iron-sulfur cluster protein loss. CuET induces ferroptosis via a copper-triggered, radical-dependent pathway with limited dependence on iron accumulation, and alters lipid composition to sensitize cells to peroxidative damage. CuET increases intracellular ROS and MDA levels in cancer cells. CuET exhibits anti-tumor activity against non-small cell lung cancer in vitro and in vivo. CuET can be used for the research of cancer, such as non-small cell lung cancer.
Handling:
Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance,
we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one
month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at
