Beschreibung

Ethyl 2,2-difluoro-2-iodoacetate is an anticancer drug that has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells. It was shown to increase the production of hydrogen peroxide in a reaction vessel containing chloride and sodium carbonate. This increase in hydrogen peroxide leads to the formation of diazonium salt, which inhibits the activity of an enzyme called tyrosine kinase. Tyrosine kinase regulates the activation of proteins involved in cell growth and replication, so inhibition leads to a decrease in cancerous cell growth. Ethyl 2,2-difluoro-2-iodoacetate also has been shown to inhibit inflammatory diseases such as arthritis and atherosclerosis. The mechanism for this is currently unknown but may be due to its ability to inhibit certain enzymes called phospholipases.
