| Application: | Oxythiamine chloride hydrochloride is suitable for use: • as a reference standard for calibration curve generation in liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for oxythiamine pyrophosphate (OTPP) quantification in red blood cells • as a thiamine transport inhibitor in human mammary epithelial cells (HMEC) and breast cancer cell lines • in the synthesis of oxythiamineH picrolonate salt |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Oxythiamine (OT) is a thiamine antagonist. It is a transketolase inhibitor and is employed to study anti-metastatic mechanisms, especially those involving metalloproteinases (MMP). It significantly sensitizes human hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HCC) to sorafenib, favoring tumor suppression. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Oxythiamine inhibits Transketolase, the enzyme that controls the nonoxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway. |
| General description: | Oxythiamine is a thiamine antimetabolite and the source through diet is by consuming acidic thiamine rich foods. |
