Description

2-Mercapto-N-methylbenzamide is a synthetic compound that has been shown to have inhibitory activities against activated brain cells and cell lines. This drug has been used in the synthesis of axitinib, a cancer drug that inhibits cellular growth. 2-Mercapto-N-methylbenzamide is also used as a preservative in cosmetics and can be found in carbonated drinks and foods. It has been shown to inhibit the production of serotonin in microbicidal reactions by inhibiting the enzyme hydroxymethyl transferase, which catalyzes the conversion of 5-hydroxytryptophan to serotonin. It also prevents the reaction products from being formed by reacting with hypoxanthine, xanthine, and phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP). 2-Mercapto-N-methylbenzamide also reacts with plasma samples to form ethylmercaptoacetate, which is then oxidized to merc
