June 2007 in “Journal of Biological Chemistry” The study demonstrated that MT-DADMe-ImmA, a potent inhibitor of MTAP, effectively induced apoptosis in head and neck cancer cell lines FaDu and Cal27 by increasing MTA levels and decreasing polyamines, leading to mitochondrial changes and activation of caspases. This treatment selectively targeted cancer cells without affecting normal fibroblasts, suggesting its potential as a cancer treatment. In a mouse model, MT-DADMe-ImmA led to tumor remission, highlighting its promise for cancers sensitive to DNA methylation changes.
