Novel transketolase inhibitor oroxylin A suppresses the non‐oxidative pentose phosphate pathway and hepatocellular carcinoma tumour growth in mice and patient‐derived organoids

Abstract Background Transketolase (TKT), a key rate‐limiting enzyme in the non‐oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), provides more than 85% of the ribose required for de novo nucleotide biosynthesis and promotes the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Pharmacologic inhi...
