MCT1 and MCT4 are expressed at higher levels in many cancer cells than comparable normal cells of the same tissue. Disclosed herein are assays for determining whether a test material/molecule is a substrate for, and/or is actively transported by, the MCT1 and/or MCT4, as well as inhibitors and substrates of MCT1 and/or MCT4, methods of isolating the same, and methods of using the same for treatment or diagnosis of cancer.
The invention relates to a quinone derivative of the following formula:
which is capable of converting into two alkylating agents upon bioreduction. Substituents A, B, C, and D are as described herein.
