2-Deoxy-L-ribose
2-Deoxy-L-ribose, the L-stereoisomer of 2-deoxy-D-ribose, acts as an inhibitor of the anti-apoptotic effects of its D-form and can suppress tumor cell metastasis by downregulating thymidine phosphorylase. This small molecule is used in oncology research to study apoptosis and metastasis mechanisms in both cellular and animal models.
