Power Cut : Inhibiting Mitochondrial Translation to Target Leukemia
(2011) In Cancer Cell 20(5). p.555-556- Abstract
In this issue of Cancer Cell, Skrtic et al. demonstrate that inhibition of mitochondrial ribosomes with tigecycline, a known antimicrobial, selectively kills leukemia cells. This finding highlights the metabolic susceptibility of leukemia cells to mitochondrial translational inhibition and identifies a compound with significant efficacy in an in vivo preclinical model.
