Description and Uses
Phloridzin dihydrate has been used as:
- a Na+-glucose cotransport inhibitor to test its effect in lowering blood glucose
- a hexose carrier inhibitor to prevent glucose derivative 2-(N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl)amino)-2-deoxyglucose (2-NBDG) uptake in sycamore cells
- a non-specific sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor in embryonic cardiomyocyte cell line H9C2 to investigate its protective effect on Dox-induced cytotoxicity
