triethylenetetramine

Trientine-2HCl (Trien), a chelating agent, is used to treat Wilson's disease by binding up and removing copper in the body. Trientine can also be used as a chelating agent for copper in hepatolenticular degeneration, as a stabilizer for epoxy resins, and as ampholyte for isoelectric focusing.

Triethylenetetramine (Trientine) tetrahydrochloride is an orally active, potent, and selective copper chelator. It aids in the excretion of divalent copper ions from the body, reduces intestinal copper absorption, and minimizes copper accumulation. Additionally, Triethylenetetramine tetrahydrochloride exhibits potential anticancer properties through mechanisms such as telomerase inhibition, anti-angiogenesis, and promoting cancer cell apoptosis (apoptosis). This compound shows promise in the study of Wilson's disease, cancer, and diabetic complications.

N1-Acetyl Triethylenetetramine-D4 is a deuterated compound of N1-Acetyl Triethylenetetramine. N1-Acetyl Triethylenetetramine has a CAS number of 141998-21-2.

N1-Acetyl Triethylenetetramine-[D4] Trihydrochloride (Standard) is a reference standard of N1-Acetyl Triethylenetetramine-[D4] Trihydrochloride intended for quantitative analysis, quality control, and related biochemical research applications.
