Ordering Information

Biological Activity

3-Aminopropionitrile fumarate is an organic compound that acts as a potent inhibitor of lysyl oxidase (LOX). By inhibiting LOX-mediated covalent cross-linking of collagen and elastin fibers, it disrupts extracellular matrix remodeling and architecture. This target inhibition subsequently leads to attenuated tissue stiffness, altered cellular migration, and the suppression of fibrotic responses and tumor cell invasive capabilities in preclinical models.

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
