Azaguanine-8(Cat No.:A000810)is a synthetic analog of guanine, classified as a purine derivative. It is primarily studied for its potential as an antimetabolite, interfering with nucleic acid synthesis and thus impacting cell proliferation. Azaguanine-8 has shown promise in research related to cancer therapy, particularly due to its ability to disrupt the growth of rapidly dividing tumor cells. Additionally, it may serve as a tool in studying purine metabolism and related biochemical pathways. Ongoing investigations aim to explore its therapeutic applications and mechanisms of action in various disease models.
