Application Comment Organism
medicine co-expression of Escherichia coli nitroreductase and arylamine N-acetyltransferase NAT2 in SKOV3 cells decreases the IC50 value of prodrug CB1954, i.e. 5-(aziridin-1-yl)-2,4-dinitrobenzamide, 16fold. The significantly decreased bystander effect may provide a greater clinical response at therapeutic concentrations of CB1954 Homo sapiens
