MedKoo CAT#: 341191

CAS#: 70641-51-9

Description: Edelfosine is a synthetic lysophospholipid analog that selectively inhibits phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C (IC50 = 9.6 μM in fibroblasts and adenocarcinoma cells). Edelfosine acts as an agonist at platelet-activating factor (PAF) receptors. Edelfosine is an antitumor lipid that selectively induces apoptosis in tumor cells, sparing normal cells, and activates the intracellular Fas/CD95 death receptor. Edelfosine also triggers eryptosis and interacts with mitochondrial membranes to increase mitochondrial membrane permeability, leading to dysfunction and apoptosis.
