NSC 131463 is a dihydrofolate reductase potent inhibitor with an IC50 of 1 nM. It is a minor metabolite of methotrexate. It inhibited L1210 cell proliferation in culture (IC50 = 0.3 uM), and prolonged the survival of L1210 leukemic mice (98% increase in lifespan at 120 mg/kg, qdx9). Studies on the interaction of mAPA-HCysA with partially purified mouse liver folyl polyglutamate synthetase revealed that mAPA-HCysA was not a substrate. Hence, the increased dose of mAPA-HCysA required to inhibit tumor growth in vitro and in vivo relative to methotrexate may reflect, in part, the inability of this compound to form non-effluxing polyglutamates.

For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.

| Methotrexate hydrate
Methotrexate hydrate is an antimetabolite and antifolate that inhibits dihydrofolate reductase, thereby preventing the conversion of folic acid to tetrahydrofolate and inhibiting DNA synthesis. In addition, Methotrexate hydrate is an immunosuppressant and antitumor agent used in studies related to rheumatoid arthritis and various cancers such as acute lymphoblastic leukemia. |
| Trimetrexate glucuronate
Trimetrexate glucuronate (NSC 352122) is a folic acid antagonist. Trimetrexate glucuronate affects DNA and RNA synthesis by inhibiting dihydrofolate reductase and preventing the synthesis of purine nucleotides and thymidylate. Trimetrexate glucuronate has potential antitumour activity and can also be used to inhibit Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia. |
