Abstract

Novel substituted pteridine-derived inhibitors of Monocarboxylate Transporter 1 (MCT1), an emerging target for Cancer therapy, are reported. The activity of these compounds as inhibitors of lactate transport was confirmed using a (14)C-lactate transport assay, and their potency against MCT1-expressing human tumor cells was established using MTT assays. The four most potent compounds showed substantial Anticancer activity (EC50 37-150 nM) vs MCT1-expressing human Raji lymphoma cells.
