NU 1025（Cat No.:I010181）is a selective inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), an enzyme involved in DNA repair and cellular stress responses. By inhibiting PARP, NU 1025 interferes with the repair of single-strand DNA breaks, leading to the accumulation of DNA damage and subsequent cell death, particularly in cancer cells. This property makes NU 1025 a potential therapeutic agent in cancer treatment, especially when used in combination with DNA-damaging agents like chemotherapy. While preclinical studies show promise, further clinical research is needed to assess its efficacy, safety, and potential for treating various cancers.
