Application


  • Nanoengineered sonosensitive platelets for synergistically augmented sonodynamic tumor therapy by glutamine deprivation and cascading thrombosis.: This study explores the use of a-Methyl-DL-tryptophan in enhancing sonodynamic tumor therapy through the deprivation of glutamine and inducing thrombosis, offering a new approach to cancer treatment (Zhou et al., 2023).

  • Transporter targeted gatifloxacin prodrugs: synthesis, permeability, and topical ocular delivery.: This article describes the application of a-Methyl-DL-tryptophan in developing transporter-targeted prodrugs, enhancing drug delivery systems, particularly in ocular treatments (Vooturi et al., 2012).

  • SLC6A14 (ATB0,+) protein, a highly concentrative and broad specific amino acid transporter, is a novel and effective drug target for treatment of estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer.: The study investigates the role of a-Methyl-DL-tryptophan in targeting SLC6A14 for treating estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic agent (Karunakaran et al., 2011).

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

α-methyl-DL-tryptophan is a blocker of ATBo, an amino acid transporter whose expression is upregulated in cancer.

Tryptophan oxidation via the kynurenine pathway is an important mechanism of tumoral immunoresistance. Increased tryptophan metabolism via the serotonin pathway has been linked to malignant progression in breast cancer. In this study, we combined quantitative positron emission tomography (PET) with

Dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumors (DNTs) are typically hypometabolic but can show increased amino acid uptake on positron emission tomography (PET). To better understand mechanisms of amino acid accumulation in epileptogenic DNTs, we combined quantitative α-[(11)C]methyl-L: -tryptophan (AMT) PET with tumor immunohistochemistry.

Women are at higher risk than men for developing major depressive disorder (MDD), but the mechanisms underlying this higher risk are unknown. Here, we report proportionally normalized alpha-[(11)C]methyl-L-tryptophan brain trapping constant (alpha-[(11)C]MTrp K*(N)), an index of serotonin synthesis, in 25

PET studies with α[C-11]methyl-L-tryptophan (AMT) have shown decreased serotonin synthesis based on a decrease of the unidirectional uptake rate (K-complex) in neuropsychiatric conditions such as autism and depression. Increased AMT K-complex in tumors can indicate increased tryptophan metabolism via the
