Gallium Maltolate CAS108560-70-9 C18h9gao15 Gallixa

Main Applications

1. Anticancer Drug Development: As a ribonucleotide diphosphate reductase inhibitor, it exerts anticancer activity by inducing apoptosis in tumor cells. Its mechanism of action is associated with oxidative stress and the p53 signaling pathway. It is currently a popular lead compound in the development of innovative anticancer drugs and is widely used in preclinical studies of solid tumors such as liver cancer and prostate cancer.

‌2. Research on Inflammation and Metabolic Diseases‌: It possesses well-defined anti-inflammatory bioactivity and is used in scientific research on metabolic-related diseases such as osteoporosis and hypercalcemia. It can specifically regulate iron metabolism pathways in the body and inhibit the excessive release of inflammatory factors.

‌3. Biochemical Research Reagents‌: As high-purity tool molecules, they are used in metal-organic medicinal chemistry and research on cellular signaling pathways, serving as common reference standards in drug R&D laboratories at universities and pharmaceutical companies.

‌4. Cosmetic Ingredients‌: Certain compliant, low-concentration formulations may be added as skin-conditioning ingredients to functional skincare products to help improve skin condition.

 Storage Requirements

‌Containment Requirements‌: Must be stored strictly separate from strong oxidizing agents and strong acids or bases. This substance is most stable in a neutral environment (pH 5–8); avoid contact with extremely acidic or alkaline environments to prevent disruption of its coordination structure.
