Description
Methyl-β-cyclodextrin (Methyl-beta-cyclodextrin) is a cyclic heptasaccharide used to deliver hydrophobic agents based on its property of solubilizing non-polar substances. Methyl-β-cyclodextrin is also extensively used as a cholesterol-depleting reagent[1]. Methyl-β-cyclodextrin strongly reduces clathrin-dependent endocytosis[2]. Methyl-β-cyclodextrin blocks cell migrasome formation[3].–20°C, 3 years; 4°C, 2 years (Powder)-Applications-Cancer-programmed cell death-Formula-N/A-Citation–References-[1]Rodal SK, et al.
