Description

4-Bromophenylacetic acid ethyl ester is a synthetic compound that binds to the cytochrome P450 enzyme and inhibits its activity. This inhibition prevents the production of estrogen, which may be useful in the treatment of breast cancer. 4-Bromophenylacetic acid ethyl ester has also been shown to inhibit aromatase, an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of androgens into estrogens. Inhibition of this enzyme by 4-bromophenylacetic acid ethyl ester may be useful in the treatment of prostate cancer. The chemical has also been shown to inhibit glycoprotein synthesis in herpes simplex virus and human plasma proteins involved in drug metabolism. This inhibition may be useful for treating patients with HIV.
