Application

Ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate has been used:to inhibit nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) mobilization and TNF (tumor necrosis factor) production in human monocytesto reduce neutrophil activity in ratsto prevent Ca²⁺ influx in adriamycin (ADR)-treated podocytesto abrogate the microRNA-146a promoter luciferase reporter activity in human brain cells

Biochem/physiol Actions

Prevents induction of nitric oxide synthetase by inhibiting translation of NOS mRNA; induces apoptosis in rat smooth muscle cells and inhibits apoptosis in leukemia HL-60 cells.

General description

Ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate is a nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) inhibitor. It functions as a chelating agent, which allows the preconcentration of trace metals from solution. Pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (PDTC) has antioxidant properties. It inhibits apoptosis in lymphocytes, neurons and vascular endothelial cells.
