Overview

Streptozotocin, a glucosamine-nitrosourea, is a DNA alkylating agent that enters cells exclusively via the GLUT2 glucose transport protein. Streptozocin, a diabetagen, is especially toxic to pancreatic islet insulin-producing β-cells. It is toxic to GLUT2 positive neuroendocrine tumor cells.
An NO donor and DNA methylating agent; Streptozotocin is used in medicine as a drug against certain cancers of the Langerhans Islets. It is cytotoxic to neuroendocrine tumor cell lines that express the GLUT2 glucose transporter; Streptozocin is used to induce Type 1 diabetes for medical research.

Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
