2,6-Dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone

Overview

2,6-Dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone is a 1,4-benzoquinone derivative. 2,6-Dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone promotes phosphorylation of AKT , S6K , mTOR , 4E-BP1 , and AMPK , and attenuates mTORC1 activity as part of the AKT / mTOR pathway. 2,6-Dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone stimulates myoblast differentiation, increases myotube size, elevates MHC protein expression, enhances mitochondrial biogenesis, respiration, and DNA content, and increases skeletal muscle weights, fiber size, grip strength, and treadmill performance. 2,6-Dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone exerts anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-adipogenic, antibacterial , and antimutagenic effects, inhibits adipogenic transcription factors, nitric oxide production, skin tumor development, Magnaporthe oryzae growth, spore germination, appressorium formation, and growth of select bacterial species, induces H 2 O 2 generation and rice defense gene expression, and reduces rice blast lesion formation. 2,6-Dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone can be used for the research of obesity, skin tumorigenesis, rice blast disease, and food-borne illness.
