Description

Fmoc-(3S,4S)-4-amino-3-hydroxy-6-methylheptanoic acid is a pharmacokinetic drug that is under investigation for prostate cancer. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of prostate carcinoma cells and reduce the expression of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in vivo. Fmoc-(3S,4S)-4-amino-3-hydroxy-6-methylheptanoic acid has also been used in bioconjugate chemistry to produce a prodrug that can be taken orally. This prodrug is activated by viral proteases in the stomach, leading to an increase in cytotoxicity against HIV virus and other retroviruses. Fmoc-(3S,4S)-4-amino-3-hydroxy-6-methylheptanoic acid has also been shown to inhibit the production of human serum erythropoietin (EPO).
