The inhibition of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase from human pancreatic carcinoma cells by (alpha S,5S)-alpha-amino-3-chloro-4,5-dihydro-5-isoxazoleacetic acid (AT-125; NSC-163501). 1980

L Allen, and R Meck, and A Yunis

AT-125, (alpha S, 5S)-alpha-amino-3-chloro-4,5-dihydro-5-isoxazoleacetic acid, at a concentration of 5 microM was found to inhibit the growth of human pancreatic carcinoma cells (MIA PaCa-2) by 78% after 72 hours in continuous culture. It was found that MIA PaCa-2 gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (10 nmol/min/10(6) cells) was irreversibly inactivated by AT-125 with an inactivation half-life of 80 minutes at 450 microM.

D010190 Pancreatic Neoplasms Tumors or cancer of the PANCREAS. Depending on the types of ISLET CELLS present in the tumors, various hormones can be secreted: GLUCAGON from PANCREATIC ALPHA CELLS; INSULIN from PANCREATIC BETA CELLS; and SOMATOSTATIN from the SOMATOSTATIN-SECRETING CELLS. Most are malignant except the insulin-producing tumors (INSULINOMA).
