A cell-permeable, non-peptidyl pyrroloquinoline compound that acts as a potent, reversible, and non-competitive inhibitor of caspase-3 (IC50 = 23 nM) with 10-100-fold greater selectivity. Shown to display higher anti-apoptotic activity than Z-VAD-FMK (Cat. No. 627610) in a model of Staurosporine- (Cat. No. 569397) induced apoptosis in human Jurkat T cells. Purity: ≥97% by HPLC.
