Description

N-Methyldeoxynojirimycin is a monoclonal antibody that is a competitive inhibitor of the melanoma antigen gp75. It is also an inhibitor of oligosaccharide synthesis and has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties. N-Methyldeoxynojirimycin binds to the golgi alpha-mannosidases, preventing them from processing high-mannose type oligosaccharides. This leads to decreased chemoattractant protein production by neutrophils, which are important in the inflammatory process. N-Methyldeoxynojirimycin has also been shown to inhibit myocardial infarct size and glomerular filtration rate in rats, as well as increase biochemical markers for inflammation, such as α subunit of α1 acid glycoprotein and basic fibroblast growth factor.
