PKUMDL-LC-101-D04 is a small-molecule allosteric activator of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) used in research on ferroptosis, lipid peroxidation, and inflammation. It increases GPX4 enzymatic activity in cell-free and cellular assays (reported pEC50 = 4.7) and protects cells from cholesterol peroxide-induced toxicity.
- Allosteric activator of GPX4, reported pEC50 = 4.7.
- Increases GPX4 activity to ~150% in cell-free and cellular extracts at reported concentrations.
- Demonstrated inhibition of ferroptosis and protection against lipid peroxide-induced cell death.
- Molecular weight ~378.93 g·mol⁻¹ and chemical formula C14H23ClN4O2S2.
- Supplied as a high-purity research chemical suitable for biochemical and cellular assays.
