Comment: Orteronel (TAK-700) is a non-steroidal inhibitor of cytochrome P450 17A1 (CYP17A1) [7]. It was designed to target the enzyme's 17,20-lyase activity (crucial for DHEA and testosterone biosynthesis, including extragonadal androgen production) whilst not altering its 17-hydroxylase catalytic activity (required for corticosterone and aldosterone production) [2]. CYP17A1 inhibition is a molecular mechanism that is expoited for the treatment of advanced castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) [4,6]. For CRPC treatment it would be advantageous to selectively inhibit androgen biosynthesis, whilst limiting reductions in corticosterone and aldosterone production.
![]() Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |
