Metabolite Identification
Common NameBrequinar
DescriptionBrequinar belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylquinolines. These are heterocyclic compounds containing a quinoline moiety substituted with a phenyl group. Brequinar (DuP-785) is a drug that acts as a potent and selective inhibitor of the enzyme dihydroorotate dehydrogenase. Brequinar is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). It has been investigated as an immunosuppressant for preventing rejection after organ transplant and also as an anti-cancer drug, but was not accepted for medical use in either application largely due to its narrow therapeutic dose range and severe side effects when dosed inappropriately. However it continues to be researched both as part of a potential combination therapy for some cancers, or alternatively as an antiparasitic, or antiviral drug. It blocks synthesis of pyrimidine based nucleotides in the body and so inhibits cell growth. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Brequinar is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Brequinar is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.
