Scientific Background | Aphidicolin is a specific inhibitor of DNA polymerase α and δ, arresting cells in early S phase without affecting other polymerases. It is widely used in cell cycle studies and apoptosis research. In neuroscience, Aphidicolin is employed to investigate DNA replication stress, cell cycle regulation, and gene amplification in neural cells, contributing to the understanding of neurodegenerative mechanisms involving genomic instability. |
