Description

2-Bromo-N-phenylacetamide is a molecule that has been shown to have clinical relevance in the treatment of insulin resistance, bowel disease, and inflammatory bowel disease. It has also been shown to have a potential use as an anti-inflammatory agent with inhibitory activity against proinflammatory cytokines. 2-Bromo-N-phenylacetamide is an analog of 2,4-dinitrophenol. It is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in organic solvents but insoluble in water. It inhibits the growth of c. glabrata and other fungi through disruption of mitochondrial function and oxidative stress. The compound has also been shown to be able to inhibit insulin sensitivity by binding to the insulin receptor on cell surfaces without activating it. This inhibits the activation of a second messenger cascade and prevents the accumulation of intracellular calcium ions.
