Description
AGI-41998 is a potent and orally active inhibitor of methionine adenosyltransferase 2A (MAT2A) that effectively penetrates the blood-brain barrier. AGI-41998 exhibits inhibitory activities against MAT2A and S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) in HCT-116 MTAP-null cells with IC50s of 22 nM and 34 nM. AGI-41998 can significantly inhibit the proliferation of HCT-116 cells and tumor growth. AGI-41998 can be used to study the role of SAM regulation in the central nervous system (CNS) and colon cancer[1]
