In Vitro

Fascaplysin induces autophagy as a cytoprotective response via ROS and p8 in vascular endothelial cells (VECs)[2].
Fascaplysin targets metabolic activity of the prostate cancer cells, without disrupting cell membrane's integrity[2].
. Fascaplysin induces caspase mediated crosstalk between apoptosis and autophagy through the inhibition of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling cascade in human leukemia HL-60 cells[2].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
