DESCRIPTION
DRP-104 inhibits the enzyme glutaminase 1 (GLS1), which is crucial for the conversion of glutamine into glutamate. Glutamate is a precursor for the synthesis of other amino acids, nucleotides, and for energy production through the citric acid cycle. Inhibition of GLS1 reduces the availability of glutamate, disrupting the production of nucleotides and proteins necessary for tumor cell proliferation and reducing the energy available to them.
Cancer cells heavily depend on glutamine for their metabolism and growth. By inhibiting glutaminase, DRP-104 alters tumor metabolism, inducing a state of metabolic stress in tumor cells, leading to their selective death while normal cells, which are less dependent on glutamine, are less affected.
