Dicarbanonaborates--new inhibitors of mitochondrial L-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase.

abstract：:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas arise through the accumulation of certain genetic alterations including ras, p16, p53, and DPC4. We found that activation of ras and inactivation of p53 could cooperatively induce in vitro tumorigenicity in conditionally immortalized pancreatic epithelial (IMPE) cells. IMPE cells were...
