2,4-D sodium (2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid sodium) is a selective herbicide used for the control of broad-leaved weeds. It can induce apoptosis and inhibits DNA and protein synthesis, which prevents normal plant growth and development. In vitro studies show it inhibits cell viability in A549 and WI38 cells with IC50 values of 126 μM and 115 μM, respectively, and induces apoptosis by influencing the cell cycle. In vivo, 2,4-D sodium salt has been observed to have toxic effects on the reproductive system of male rats at dosages of 100 or 200 mg/kg over 30 days, decreasing testis, seminal vesicles, and prostate relative weight, reducing spermatozoa count and motility, and increasing FSH and LH levels.
