Informação sobre produto

• Nome: 3-(Trifluoromethyl)cinnamic acid
• Marca: Biosynth
• Descrição: 3-(Trifluoromethyl)cinnamic acid (3TCA) is a cinnamic acid derivative that has been synthesized and studied. It is a supramolecular chemistry that has been shown to inhibit the activity of dehydrogenases, which are enzymes involved in postprandial plasma glucose metabolism. 3TCA is also a peptidomimetic and can be used as an inhibitor for cancer cells. 3TCA binds to the active site of dehydrogenases, blocking the transfer of electrons from NADH to coenzyme A and disrupting electron transport. This inhibition leads to decreased levels of acetyl-CoA and ATP, resulting in cell death. 3TCA has also been found to be useful as an inhibitor for amide hydrolase, which is an enzyme involved in the breakdown of proteins into amino acids. 3TCA can be used in techniques such as molecular modeling, crystal x-ray diffraction, and clinical use.
