Biochem/physiol Actions

Lomeguatrib is a highly potent inactivator of O(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), a DNA repair protein which can confer resistance to some cancer chemotherapeutics, in particular the DNA alkylating agents such as Temozolomide, DTIC, Carmustine, etc. Lomeguatrib is a highly potent inactivator of MGMT and can be used to further investigate mechanisms of resistance. It is a potent irreversible inactivator of all mammalian O6-alkylguanine-DNA-alkyltransferases, so far tested with nanomolar activity in vitro and in vivo.

Previous studies indicated that dacarbazine and Temozolomide could be highly effective against refractory acute leukaemia. Their activity relies mainly on the generation of methyl adducts at the O(6)-position of guanine in DNA. High levels of O(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) or a

Expression of the DNA repair protein O (6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) correlates with resistance to irinotecan in colorectal cancer cell lines. This phase I study evaluated the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of lomeguatrib, an inactivating pseudosubstrate of MGMT, in combination with

DNA repair, 6(8), 1161-1169 (2007-05-09)
The DNA repair protein, O(6)-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (MGMT) can confer resistance to the cancer chemotherapeutic effects of the class of DNA damaging drugs generally referred to as the O(6)-alkylating agents. Inactivation of MGMT is thus a practical approach to improving the
