Biochem/physiol Actions

JS-K belongs to the class of diazeniumdiolate prodrug. It generates nitric oxide when metabolized by glutathione S-transferases (GST), which ensures optimal activity of JS-K. It has tumor growth inhibition action in human prostate cancer and leukemia.
Nitric oxide donor; antiproliferative.
