Title:

510 / 6 - Novel glutamine antagonist JHU-395 suppresses MYC-driven medulloblastoma growth and induces apoptosis

Excerpt:
We hypothesized that this prodrug would have enhanced cell penetration compared to DON and would kill MYC-expressing medulloblastoma. JHU-395 treatment caused decreased growth and increased apoptosis in human MYC-expressing medulloblastoma cell lines at lower concentrations than DON.
