Ruthenium Red | 2490

Ruthenium red is an inhibitor of mitochondrial Ca²⁺ uniporter; also blocks cell membrane-located capsaicin-activated cation channels (IC₅₀ = 14 nM) and voltage-sensitive Ca²⁺ channels to inhibit neurotransmitter release. In addition, it specifically blocks the curcumin-induced apoptosis in U937 cells.
