2-Oxooxolane-4-carboxylic acid

CAS: 498-89-5

2-Oxooxolane-4-carboxylic acid is an aldolase inhibitor that can be used to treat autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, and cancer. It has been shown to reduce the production of citrate in cancer cells, which causes peroxisome proliferation. This inhibits the production of ATP and reduces the cellular activity of mitochondria. 2-Oxooxolane-4-carboxylic acid has also been shown to increase insulin sensitivity by inhibiting the activation of protein kinase C (PKC). The drug is also a proliferator for activated T cells. These properties make 2-Oxooxolane-4-carboxylic acid a potential treatment for type 2 diabetes and other autoimmune diseases.
