Description

1,2-O-Isopropylidene-a-D-glucofuranose (IPDF) is a natural compound that has been isolated from the leaves of the plant Cinnamomum camphora. IPDF has been shown to have biological properties such as inhibiting hl-60 cells and inducing apoptosis in leukemia cells. The metabolic rate of IPDF was studied in isolated hearts and it was found that the compound slows fatty acid oxidation. The enzyme substrate specificity of IPDF was also tested by adding trifluoroacetic acid, which yielded no reaction.
