Description
Summary:Metabolic reprogramming has become the new hallmark of cancer. Carbohydrate metabolism is a key component of metabolic transformations in tumors. To date, many therapeutic agents have been identified that target proteins and enzymes involved in glucose transport and metabolism, with promising results in cell culture studies and animal tumor models. In our studies, we found that the most promising among them is the glycolysis inhibitor iodoacetate. The study of this agent showed that iodoacetate in liposomal form has the best performance. With a course introduction, its antimetastatic and antitumor activity reached significant indices of growth inhibition. At the same time, liposomes with iodoacetate had an almost completely safe toxicological profile compared to the independent form and, as a result, have great potential in polychemotherapy.
