Description and Uses

Streptozotocin (STZ) was originally identified in the late 1950s as an antibiotic and was discovered in a strain of the soil microbe Streptomyces achromogenes. In the mid-1960s, STZ was found to be selectively toxic to the beta cells of the pancreatic islets and thus it is used in animal model of diabetes and as a medical treatment for cancers of the beta cells. STZ’s use in cancer chemotherapy received Food and Drug Administration approval in July 1982 and the drug was subsequently marketed as Zanosar.

antineoplastic, alkylating agent
