Produktinformation

• Name: 2,4-Dihydroxybenzoic acid
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 2,4-Dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,4-DB) is a metabolite of salicylic acid. It is used as an intermediate in the production of various drugs and dyes. 2,4-DB has been shown to be effective against hepatic steatosis induced by hydrogen fluoride in mice. This drug also inhibits mitochondrial membrane potential and DNA binding activity in human serum. 2,4-DB can bind to the α subunit of mitochondrial ATPase and act as a competitive inhibitor for p-hydroxybenzoic acid which is essential for the activation of this enzyme. The x-ray diffraction data from crystalline 2,4-DB shows that this compound binds to dna with coordination geometry that resembles that of salicylic acid. The kinetic studies have shown that 2,4-DB reacts noncompetitively with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
