CAS 146464-95-1: Pralatrexate
Description:Pralatrexate is a synthetic antifolate compound primarily used in the treatment of certain types of cancer, particularly peripheral T-cell lymphoma. It functions as an inhibitor of dihydrofolate reductase, an enzyme critical for DNA synthesis and cell proliferation. This mechanism disrupts the folate metabolism in rapidly dividing cancer cells, leading to their growth inhibition. Pralatrexate is characterized by its high affinity for the reduced folate carrier, which facilitates its uptake into cells. The compound is typically administered via intravenous injection and is known for its ability to penetrate tissues effectively. Its chemical structure includes a pteridine core, which is essential for its biological activity. Pralatrexate has been associated with various side effects, including myelosuppression, mucositis, and fatigue, necessitating careful monitoring during treatment. Overall, pralatrexate represents a targeted therapeutic approach in oncology, leveraging its biochemical properties to combat malignancies that are resistant to conventional therapies.
