Bioactivity | (2R)-Octyl-α-hydroxyglutarate ((2R)-Octyl-2-HG) is a modified form of D-isomer 2-Hydroxyglutarate. |
Invitro | Treatment of IDH1-WT HeLa cells with (2R)-Octyl-α-hydroxyglutarate, a modified form of 2-Hydroxyglutarate with high cellular uptake, results in a dose-dependent increase in DSBs in log-phase cells. It has been used to examine the contribution of D-2-Hydroxyglutarate to the oxidative mitochondrial processes of IDH1-mutated cancer cells[1]. |
