MedKoo Cat#: 201150 | Name: Edatrexate

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Edatrexate is a polyglutamatable folate antagonist analogue of methotrexate with antineoplastic activity. Edatrexate inhibits dihydrofolate reductase, thereby increasing cellular levels of polyglutamates, inhibiting thymidylate synthase and glycinamide ribonucleotide formyl transferase, impairing synthesis of purine nucleotides and amino acids, and resulting in tumor cell death. Edatrexate may overcome tumor resistance to methotrexate, which loses its activity after it is polyglutamated. Check for active clinical trials or closed clinical trials using this agent.
