Description
UPF-1069 (1048371-03-4) is a selective PARP-2 inhibitor (IC50=0.3 μM and ~ 27-fold selective against PARP-1).1,2?Increases apoptosis in hippocampal slices but protects cortical cells in models of post-ischemic brain damage.3?Blocks the interaction between PARP-2 and FOXA1, attenuating androgen receptor-mediated gene expression and inhibiting androgen receptor-positive prostate cancer growth.4
