General description

2-Fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose is non-toxic and a structural analog of glucose, significantly inhibiting glycosylation. As a glucose analog, uptake of 2-Fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose is rapid in brain and heart cells.[1]

2-Fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose can be taken up by cells but does not undergo metabolic glycolysis.

Application

2-Fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose is used as a tracer for rapid tumor detection.[1] It is used as a glucose analog to study glucose uptake in mice with radiation and burn injuries. [2]Oncology therapy studies use FDG in combination with PET (Positron Emission Topography)

Biochem/physiol Actions

The number of studies in the literature involving quantification of the metabolic heterogeneity seen in (18)F-FDG PET images has increased sharply over recent years. We hypothesized that inclusion of very small regions of interest as unique data points will have

Tunicamycin, 2-deoxy-D-glucose and 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-D-glucose inhibit dimethyl sulfoxide-induced differentiation of Friend cells. This inhibition, characterized by inhibition of hemoglobin synthesis, is accompanied by a specific inhibition of protein glycosylation. The results of cloning experiments indicate that this inhibition specifically affects cells

[18F]-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) is considered a valuable tool in the diagnosis and staging of cancer. In addition, it seems promising as a technique to monitor response to therapy. Progress is hampered, however, by the fact that various

Indeterminate results at fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) of thyroid nodules pose a clinical dilemma, because only 20% to 30% of patients suffer from malignancy. Previous studies suggested that the false-negative ratio of [(18)F]-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) is very low; therefore

Studies in rodents have shown that brown adipose tissue (BAT) is activated on food intake, thereby reducing metabolic efficiency. The current study investigated whether a single high-calorie, carbohydrate-rich meal activates BAT in lean human adults. BAT activity was studied in
