Product Information

• Name: 2-ethynylquinoline
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Ethynylquinoline is a molecule that has been found to be effective in the treatment of leukemia and other cancers. It inhibits protein synthesis in cells by binding to the molecule eIF4E, which prevents the production of proteins vital for cell division. 2-Ethynylquinoline has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties, which may be due to its ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis. This drug also has a toxic effect on respiratory system cells, which may be due to its ability to induce apoptosis.2-Ethynylquinoline is a potent cytotoxic agent that inhibits the growth of cancer cells by inhibiting protein synthesis and mitochondrial membrane potential. The drug also suppresses oxidative injury and cardiac dysfunction induced by fatty acid oxidation. In vivo studies have shown that 2-ethynylquinoline can cause regression of bronchial tumors in mice with pulmonary carcinomas, as well as regression of alveolar tumors in mice with metastatic lung
