Product Information
Name:6-Deoxy-6-fluoro-D-galactose
Brand:Biosynth
Description:6-Deoxy-6-fluoro-D-galactose is a fluorinated sugar that has been shown to inhibit the uptake of glucose by human liver cells. This sugar binds to the enzyme activity and inhibits its activity. 6-Deoxy-6-fluoro-D-galactose was found to be metabolized in a dose dependent manner, with higher doses leading to increased uptake of fluorescein and decreased uptake of glucose. 6FDG is also metabolized by chemical reactions, such as oxidation or hydration, which leads to a decrease in its inhibitory effect on glucose uptake. 6FDG has been shown to bind to sequences that are involved in sugar transport and cell culture studies have shown that this sugar can induce inhibition of cell growth at high concentrations.
