Aerobic glycolysis, originally identified by Warburg as a hallmark of cancer, has recently been implicated in immune cell activation and growth. Glucose, the starting material for glycolysis, is transported through the cellular membrane by a family of glucose transporters (GLUTs). Therefore, targeting glucose transporters to regulate aerobic glycolysis is an attractive approach to identify potential therapeutic agents for cancers and autoimmune diseases. Herein, we describe the discovery and optimization of a class of potent, orally bioavailable inhibitors of glucose transporters, targeting both GLUT1 and GLUT3.
GLUCOSE UPTAKE INHIBITORS
-
Paragraph 0194; 0205-0207, (2020/01/24)
this invention provides compounds that modulate glucose uptake activity and cellular transport/uptake of glucose, and particularly GLUTS3, but also including but not limited to GLUT1-14 (SLC2A1-SLC2A14). Compounds of the invention are useful for treating diseases, including cancer, autoimmune diseases and inflammation, infectious diseases, and metabolic diseases.
TREATMENT OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES WITH GLUCOSE UPTAKE INHIBITORS
-
Paragraph 0093; 0094, (2017/01/09)
Provided are methods of treating infectious diseases in mammals comprising administering a compound that inhibits glucose uptake. Particular infectious diseases that may be treated include malaria, leishmaniasis, African trypanosomiasis, tuberculosis, HIV, HCMV or herpes virus. In a first aspect, the invention features a method of treating infectious diseases in a mammal, comprising administering to a mammalian subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound or prodrug thereof, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester of said compound or prodrug, wherein the compound is an inhibitor of glucose uptake.
