DDC

DDC (CAS number) is mainly used for the construction of animal models of induced liver injury. Its mechanism of action involves inhibiting ferrochelatase, thereby affecting the heme synthesis process. In cell models, DDC is used to study hepatocyte responses to oxidative stress and toxic substances, often by adjusting the concentration of DDC in the culture medium to observe its effects on cell growth and function. In animal models, DDC is commonly used to induce liver injury in order to study the pathogenesis of liver diseases and potential therapeutic approaches. The dose or concentration used in experiments usually depends on the experimental design and research objectives.
