| Description | UPGL00004 is a potent glutaminase C (GAC) inhibitor with an IC50 of 29 nM. Kd of UPGL00004 for GAC was 27 nM. UPGL00004 has a strong inhibitory effect on the proliferation of highly aggressive triple negative breast cancer cell lines. |
| In vitro | UPGL00004 inhibits MDA-MB-231, HS578T, and TSE cells (IC50s: 70, 129, and 262 nM, respectively).[1] |
| In vivo | In a triple-negative breast cancer patient-derived tumor graft model, the combination of UPGL00004 (1 mg/kg body weight) and Bevacizumab (2.5 mg/kg body weight) via intraperitoneal injection completely prevent any detectable increase in tumor size.[1] |
