Farnesyl pyrophosphate-D2 is the deuterium-labeled version of Farnesyl pyrophosphate (T73755) triammonium. This compound, also known as Farnesyl pyrophosphate (T73755) ammonium salt, is a 15-carbon isoprenoid and a metabolic intermediate in the mevalonate (MVA) pathway. It acts as an agonist of TRPM2 (TRP Channel), enabling the channel to open and allowing ion flow into cells. Additionally, Farnesyl pyrophosphate (T73755) ammonium salt serves as a crucial branching substrate for cholesterol synthesis, ubiquinone synthesis, protein prenylation, and the synthesis of geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate (GGPP).

Geranyl pyrophosphate is an intermediate in the mevalonate pathway. It is formed from dimethylallyl pyrophosphate and isopentenyl pyrophosphate by geranyl pyrophosphate synthase.

The compound effectively inhibits the geranylgeranylation of RAP1A (IC50= 10 µM) without affecting the farnesylation of H-Ras (IC50= >30 µM). Moreover, GGTI 2133 reduces the growth, migration, and invasion of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSSC) cells to 75, 45, and 27% of control levels, respectively. When administered intraperitoneally at 5 mg/kg per day, it prevents eosinophil infiltration into the airways in a mouse model of allergic bronchial asthma, although it does not reduce chemokine levels.
