Cordycepin(Cat No.:R008436)is a naturally occurring adenosine analog derived from the Cordyceps fungus, known for its diverse biological activities. By inhibiting RNA synthesis and disrupting cellular processes, cordycepin exhibits potential anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral effects. It interferes with cell proliferation and induces apoptosis, making it a subject of interest in cancer research. Additionally, cordycepin shows promise in immune modulation and has been explored for treating conditions like asthma, cardiovascular diseases, and viral infections. Its broad therapeutic potential makes it valuable for drug development and biomedical research.
