Benefits

In MDS and AML, the development of tumor cells is caused by the process of transcriptional repression of various genes, which is due to the hypermethylation of DNA. Transcriptional repression is a process where proteins bind directly or indirectly to DNA and control the activity of copying a specific gene or a set of genes. The active form of azishil 100mg Injection binds to RNA and DNA, interrupts their activity in actively multiplying cells, and exhibits a toxic effect on cancer cells.
