Drug Potency against Target CHR-2797 Drug Info IC50 = 150 nM [2]
Action against Disease Model CHR-2797 Drug Info CHR-79888 is a potent inhibitor of a n uMber of intracellular aminopeptidases, including leucine aminopeptidase. CHR-2797 treatment in the h uMan promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60 induced a transcriptional response indicative of amino acid depletion, the amino acid deprivation response, which involves up-regulation of amino acid synthetic genes, transporters, and tRNA synthetases. These changes were confirmed in other leukemic cell lines sensitive to the antiproliferative effects of CHR-2797. Furthermore, CHR-2797 treatment inhibited phosphorylation of mTOR substrates and reduced protein synthesis in HL-60 cells, both also indicative of amino acid depletion. Treatment with CHR-2797 led to an increase in the concentration of intracellular small peptides, the substrates of aminopeptidases. [1]
