Description:

2-Deoxy-D-glucose is a glucose molecule which has the 2-hydroxyl group replaced by hydrogen. 2-Deoxyglucose (2-DG), a derivative of glucose, is able to be phosphorylated by hexokinase, resulting in the formation of 2-deoxyglucose-phosphate (2-DG-P).

A study found that by combining the sugar 2-Deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) with fenofibrate, a compound that has been safely used in humans for more than 40 years to lower cholesterol and triglycerides, an entire tumor could effectively be targeted without the use of toxic chemotherapy.

Function:

It is a natural anti metabolite antibiotic, which has a variety of physiological and pharmacological effects, such as inhibiting virus infection, yeast fermentation, bacteria and tumor cell growth. It has the functions of antiviral, antibacterial, anticancer, antiepileptic and anti-aging. It is used to prevent virus and pathogen infection, prevent infectious diseases caused by pathogenic bacteria such as HSV, HIV and influenza virus, and treat herpes. It is mainly used for the prevention and treatment of various viral diseases and immunosuppressive diseases of livestock and poultry, as well as auxiliary treatment of bacterial and mycoplasma infection, It has a wide application prospect in medicine, cosmetics and other industries.
