Product Information

• Name: 2-Iodoquinoline
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Iodoquinoline is a quinoline derivative that has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of the uptake of amyloid protein in vitro. 2-Iodoquinoline is also able to inhibit the growth of cancer cells and induce apoptosis. The mechanism by which 2-Iodoquinoline inhibits tumor cell growth may be due to its ability to activate epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). This compound has also been shown to stimulate epidermal growth through the activation of EGFR and other signaling pathways, such as phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK).
