DFMO Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

L-Eflornithine (L-DFMO) is an enantiomer of Eflornithine. L-Eflornithine is an irreversible ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) inhibitor with a KD of 1.3±0.3 μM, and a Kinact of 0.15±0.03 min-1[1].

Biological Activity

L-Eflornithine (L-DFMO) is the enantiomer of Eflornithine. L-Eflornithine is an irreversible ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) inhibitor with KD of 1.3±0.3 μM and Kinact of 0.15±0.03 min-1.

in vivo

The more potent L-Eflornithine is present at much lower concentrations in both plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) than those of the D-Eflornithine. The plasma concentrations of L-Eflornithine are on average 52% of the D -enantiomer concentrations. The typical oral clearances of L-Eflornithine and D-eflornithine are 17.4 and 8.23 liters/h, respectively.
