Descripción

2,2'-(Diazene-1,2-diyl)bis(2-methylpropanimidamide) dihydrochloride (BPDC) is a synthetic compound that is used as an analytical reagent and a model system for oxidative injury. It has significant cytotoxicity on human cells in cell culture. BPDC induces oxidative damage to proteins and DNA by increasing the production of reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide, superoxide, and hydroxyl radicals. The mechanism of action is not well understood but may be due to Toll-like receptor signalling pathways. This compound has been shown to inhibit the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase and catalase. It also inhibits the activity of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-6 and IL-8. BPDC is being investigated for its potential use in bowel disease treatment.
