Application

3PO has been used as a 6-Phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase isoform 3(PFKFB3) inhibitor to study its effect on cell viability loss, apoptosis, and necroptosis in colorectal cancer cells. It has also been used as a PFKFB3 inhibitor to inhibit glycolysis and study its effects on cell viability and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in trabectedin (TRB) and lurbinectedin (LUR) treated human macrophages (hMFs).

Biochem/physiol Actions

3PO is a potent and selective inhibitor of PFKFB3 (6-Phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase) that reduces glycolytic flux and suppresses glucose uptake. 3PO is selectively cytostatic to transformed cells and suppresses the growth of established tumor in mice.
Inhibition of glycolysis by PFKFB3 blockade mediated by 3PO reduced pathological angiogenesis in cancer and inflammation. 3PO aids in the regulation of endothelial proliferation and migration. It also reduces pro-inflammatory activation of endothelial cells and experimental inflammation in vivo. Therefore, it may be a potential therapeutic for treating chronic inflammation. Its anti-inflammatory activity in human endothelial cells is independent of its target PFKFB3.

The occurrence of BRAFV600E mutation causes an up-regulation of the B-raf kinase activity leading to the stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α) - the promoter of the 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3) enzyme. The aim of the study was to examine the
