Sodium oxamate, an inhibitor of LDH-C4, prevented the AR induced by lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) or NADH. Oxamic acid sodium salt is an lactic acid dehydrogenase. Sperm suspension and cytosol fraction activities were inhibited by sodium oxamate. As cancer cells are often dependent on glycolysis for ATP production, sodium oxamate has implications as an anticancer compound.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
