Description

4,5-Dichloro-1,2-phenylenediamine is a cytotoxic agent that can inhibit the enzymes urea amidolyase and fatty acid synthase in tissue culture. This compound also inhibits the production of urea nitrogen and fatty acids in human serum. 4,5-Dichloro-1,2-phenylenediamine may be useful as a cancer treatment because it has been shown to cause leukemia cell death as well as inhibition of t-cell proliferation. The drug may also induce apoptosis by inhibiting DNA synthesis through its reaction with benzimidazole compounds. The basic structure of 4,5-Dichloro-1,2-phenylenediamine is similar to protocatechuic acid and malignant brain tumor cells.
