AMMONIUM TRICHLORO[1,2-ETHANEDIOLATO-O,O']-TELLURATE

Uses

AS 101 inhibits AKT activity in leukemic cells and has bee shown to favorably affect renal pathologies in various animal models. AS 101 inhibition of the AKT downstream pathway by AS101 has clinical potential in alleviating the progression of diabetic nephropathy.

Biological Activity

Immunomodulator; inhibits IL-10 synthesis and potentiates IL-1 α , IL-2 and TNF- α release.
