2-Deoxy-D-glucose

Biological Activity

Across all 16 tumor cell lines, there was a significant correlation between DG uptake and 3-O-MG transport (p = 0.0012, F test), but not between DG uptake and hexokinase activity. Hexokinase activity of the tumor cells was comparable to that of the human fibroblast cells in the exponential growth phase. Most tumor cells showed higher DG uptake and 3-O-MG transport than the human fibroblast cells.The 2DG6P content in isolated rat soleus muscle after incubation with 2-deoxyglucose (2DG) was increased in a dose-dependent manner by insulin (ED(50) = 0.6 mU/ml), the maximum response being about 5 times that of the basal content in vitro.

Conversion of different model animals based on BSA (Value based on data from FDA Draft Guidelines)

Species	Mouse	Rat	Rabbit	Guinea pig	Hamster	Dog
Weight (kg)	0.02	0.15	1.8	0.4	0.08	10
Body Surface Area (m2)	0.007	0.025	0.15	0.05	0.02	0.5
Km factor	3	6	12	8	5	20

Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by	Animal B Km
	Animal A Km

For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the K_m factor for a mouse and then divide by the K_m factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
