Description

In Vitro

2-Deoxy-D-galactose (1 mM/L; 5 h) is rapid phosphorylation during the first 30 min and decreases to approximately 20% of this rate during the subsequent hours in ascites hepatoma cells^[4].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

2-Deoxy-D-galactose (380 mg/kg; i.p.; for 6 times) strongly decreases contents of UMP, UDPG, and UDP galactose in rat livers^[1].
2-Deoxy-D-galactose (2-8 μM; intracerebroventricularly injection; once) shows PAR impairment 30 min before the acquisition trial a dose of 4 μM and 15 min delay after do-gal administration^[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model:	Male adult Wistar rats with passive avoidance response (PAR) acquisition trial^[3]
Dosage:	2, 4 and 8 μM
