Bioactivity | Oxythiamine (Hydroxythiamine) chloride, an analogue of anti-metabolite, can suppress the non-oxidative synthesis of ribose and induce cell apoptosis. Oxythiamine is a thiamine antagonist and inhibits transketolase (TK). Oxythiamine chloride inhibits cancer cell apoptosis and inhibits cell proliferation[1][2][3]. |
