LAT Cancer Research Results

LAT, L-Type Amino Acid Transporter: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
L-Type Amino Acid Transporter 1 (LAT1) mediates the uptake of essential amino acids and its expression is upregulated during the progression of several cancers. By upregulating amino acid transporters, cancer cells gain greater access to exogenous amino acids to support chronic proliferation, maintain metabolic pathways, and to enhance certain signal transduction pathways.

In many cancers it is unregulated, particularly those with high metabolic demands, LATs, especially LAT1, facilitate the uptake of essential amino acids that support protein synthesis, cell growth, and proliferation. This is typically associated with poor prognosis and aggressive tumor behavior.

- Review, NA, NA
eff↑, newly developed boron-containing compounds have already demonstrated highly promising activities
*toxicity↓, Boronic acid/ester has been successfully incorporated into cancer treatments and therapy mainly due to its remarkable oxophilicity and low toxicity levels in the body
ROS↑, can trigger tumour microenvironmental abnormalities such as high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and overexpressed enzymes
LAT↓, boron accumulation were observed to counterpart LAT-1 expression in a bone metastasis model of breast cancer
AntiCan↑, high concentration of boron in males reduces the probability of prostate cancer by 54% compared to males with low boron concentrations
AR↓, bortezomib
PSMB5↓, bortezomib
IGF-1↓, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) in tumours was markedly reduced by boric acid.
PSA↓, exposure to both low-and high-dose boron supplementation, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels dropped by an average of 87%, while tumour size declined by an average of 31.5%
TumVol↓,
eff↑, phenylboronic acid is a more potent inhibitor than boric acid in targeting metastatic and proliferative properties of prostate cancer cells
