Lawsone methyl ether

SKU: orb1304627

Description

Lawsone methyl ether (2-Methoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone) induces apoptosis in A549 lung cancer cells via JNK/p38 MAPK activation, triggered by ROS-mediated oxidative DNA damage, independent of cell cycle arrest. This small molecule is a useful research tool for studying apoptosis signaling pathways and oxidative stress responses in vitro.
