General description
A cell-permeable dibromocarbazole-piperazinyl derivative that displays anti-apoptotic properties. Reported to effectively block Bid-induced cytochrome c release from HeLa cell mitochondria (~80% inhibition at 5 µM) by inhibiting Bax channel activity.
A cell-permeable dibromocarbazolo-piperazinyl derivative that displays anti-apoptotic properties. Effectively blocks Bid-induced cyctochrome c release from HeLa cell mitochondria (~80% inhibition at 5 µM) by inhibiting Bax channel-forming activity (IC50 = 520 nM in a liposome channel assay).
