General description

Chemical structure: benzenoid

Application

17-DMAG has been used to block the NF-κB inflammatory cascade in the murine model. It a potential therapeutic agent for non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLC).

Biochem/physiol Actions

17-DMAG is a heat shock protein (HSP90) inhibitor. 17-DMAG is a more potent analog of geldanamycin. It inhibits cancer growth and promotes apoptosis in multiple cell lines. 17-DMAG is a more potent antitumor agent than 17-AAG.
