Aminopropylcysteine(CAT: I022027) is a selective inhibitor targeting cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE), an enzyme critical in the biosynthesis of hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), a key signaling molecule. By modulating H₂S production, Aminopropylcysteine provides a powerful tool for studying cardiovascular research, particularly in the context of vasodilation, blood pressure regulation, and redox signaling. This compound is instrumental in exploring the role of H₂S in physiological and pathological conditions, including hypertension, atherosclerosis, and metabolic syndrome. Its targeted mechanism enables detailed investigations into H₂S-dependent pathways, offering insights into potential therapeutic interventions for cardiovascular diseases and related disorders.
