Description

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.

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. It is used as a glucose analog to study glucose uptake in mice with radiation and burn injuries. Oncology therapy studies use FDG in combination with PET (Positron Emission Topography)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glucose analog that inhibits cellular glycosylation.
