α-methyl-DL-tryptophan is used as a blocker of ATBo, an amino acid transporter whose expression is upregulated in cancer. It is also a substrate or non-transported inhibitor of the amino acid transporter PAT2 (slc36a2). | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
α-methyl-DL-tryptophan is a blocker of ATBo, an amino acid transporter whose expression is upregulated in cancer. | [in vivo]
α-Methyl-DL-tryptophan (α-MT) (2 mg/mL; administered in drinking water; continuously administered; throughout the experimental period) inhibits tumor growth in BALB/c nude mice inoculated with ZR-75-1 cells[1].
α-Methyl-DL-tryptophan (1 mg/mL; administered in drinking water; continuously administered; for 1 week) reduces body weight in wild-type mice on a high-fat diet[2].
Animal Model: | BALB/c nude mice (female) inoculated with ZR-75-1 cells[1] | Dosage: | 2 mg/mL | Administration: | Administered in drinking water | Result: | Reduced the growth of ZR-75-1 cells. Tumor size was significantly smaller than that in the control group. |
Animal Model: | Wild-type C57BL/6 male mice fed a high-fat diet[2] | Dosage: | 1 mg/mL | Administration: | Administered in drinking water, continuously for 1weeks | Result: | Led to a decrease in body weight. |
