Product Information

• Name: 2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-methyl-D-glucopyranose
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-methyl-D-glucopyranose (2A2DMG) is a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug that belongs to the class of drugs known as Cox inhibitors. This agent has been shown to inhibit ATP sensitive K+ channels in primary cells from rat urinary bladder, which leads to a decrease in intracellular Ca2+ levels. 2A2DMG also inhibits COX enzymes, which are responsible for the synthesis of prostaglandins and thromboxanes. This decreases inflammation and pain. 2A2DMG has antineoplastic properties and has been shown to inhibit cancer cell growth in vitro. It also prevents cell proliferation by interfering with the synthesis of collagen, the main structural protein of connective tissue.
