Lumiflavine

Lumiflavine is a structural analog of the water-soluble vitamin riboflavin that has been used to study the mechanism of uptake of riboflavin into intestinal epithelial (Caco-2) and human retinal pigment epithelial (hRPE) cells. It inhibits the uptake of radiolabeled riboflavin approximately 3-fold (at 25 µM) and 30-fold (at 10 µM) in Caco-2 cells and hRPE cells, respectively.Formal Name: 7,8,10-trimethyl-benzo[g]pteridine-2,4(3H,10H)-dione.
