MedChemExpress - Model BCH - 20448-79-7

BCH (2-Amino-2-norbornanecarboxylic acid) is a selective and competitive inhibitor of large neutral amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1) significantly inhibit cellular uptake of amino acids and mTOR phosphorylation, which induces the suppression of cancer growth and apoptosis[1][2][3].

Description：BCH (2-Amino-2-norbornanecarboxylic acid) is a selective and competitive inhibitor of large neutral amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1) significantly inhibit cellular uptake of amino acids and mTOR phosphorylation, which induces the suppression of cancer growth and apoptosis.

In Vitro：BCH (1-100 mM; 3 days; KYSE30 and KYSE150 esophageal cancer cells) treatment suppresses cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner[1].BCH (30 mM; 24 and 48 hours; KYSE30 and KYSE150 cells) treatment significantly increases cell population in the G0/G1 phase in both KYSE30 and KYSE150 cells, indicating that BCH induces cell cycle arrest at G1 phase[1]. BCH (30 mM; 0-24 hours; KYSE30 and KYSE150 cells) treatment decreases phosphorylation of 4E-BP1 and p70S6K at 30 minutes and the decrease is continued for 24 hours. The amount of mTOR, 4E-BP1, and p70S6K proteins is slightly decreased[1].

In Vivo：BCH (200 mg/kg; intravenous injection; daily; for 14 days; male BALB/c nude mice) treatment significantly delays tumor growth and decreases glucose metabolism, indicating that LAT1 inhibition potentially suppresses esophageal cancer growth in vivo[1].
