2-Deoxy-2-fluoroinositol is a non-metabolized sugar that is catalysed by CMP-sialic acid synthase and converted to sialylated glycoproteins. 2-Deoxy-2-fluoroinositol regulates the activity of potassium channels, which are involved in the uptake of nutrients. The uptake of 2-deoxy-2-fluoroinositol and its conversion to sialylated glycoproteins is enhanced by unlabelled cations such as K+, Na+, or Li+. This compound has been shown to have significant antiproliferative activity against prostate cancer cells and Giardia lamblia, an intestinal parasite. 2DFF also modifies fatty acids in cellular membranes, leading to a decrease in membrane fluidity.
