Product Information

• Name: Trehalose-6,6'-dibehenate
• Synonyms: TDB6,6'-Dibehenoyl-a,a'-trehalose
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Trehalose-6,6'-dibehenate (TDB) is a novel synthetic lipid that has been shown to have beneficial effects in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. This compound may act as an anti-inflammatory agent by inhibiting toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated signaling and TLR4-dependent production of proinflammatory cytokines. TDB also inhibits HIV infection by interfering with CD4+ T cell function and decreasing the number of CD4+ cells in the gut. In addition, TDB has been shown to be effective against lps-induced inflammatory response in cell culture.
