Sequirin C is primarily used in research settings for its potential neuroprotective properties. It has been studied for its ability to modulate cellular stress responses, making it a compound of interest in the development of therapies for neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Its application extends to in vitro models where it helps reduce oxidative damage in neuronal cells. Additionally, Sequirin C serves as a biochemical tool to investigate signaling pathways related to cell survival and apoptosis. Due to its specific activity, it is also used in high-throughput screening assays aimed at identifying novel agents for brain health and cognitive function.
