Beschreibung

A cell-permeable dipyridinyl-propenone compound that selectively blocks PFK-2 (6-phosphofructo-2-kinase) activity of PFKFB3 isozyme over PFK-1(6-phosphofructo-1-kinase) in a mixed-mode manner. Rapidly decreases fructose-2,6-bisphosphate (F-2,6-P2) and 2-deoxyglucose uptake, and lactate secretion, efficiently arrests proliferation of transformed cells (IC50 ~ 1.4 microM in NHBE-ht/LT/ras) and suppresses tumor growth in several xenograft mouse models (70 mg/kg, i.p.). The cytostatic and cytotoxic effects of 3PO is shown to be highly sensitive to the intracellular levels of F-6-P (fructose-6-phosphate) and F-2,6-P2.
