Bioactivity | BC-11 hydrobromide is a selective TMPRSS2 inhibitor (TMPRSS2 is a key host cellular factor for viral entry and SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis), and a selective urokinase (uPA) inhibitor (IC50=8.2 μM). BC-11 hydrobromide is cytotoxic to triple-negative MDA-MB231 breast cancer cells. BC-11 hydrobromide is used in research on viral infections and cancer[1][2][3]. |
