Bromopyruvate is an halogenated analogue of pyruvic acid known as an alkylating agent reacting with thiol groups of many proteins. Bromopyruvate exerts anticancer action. It is based on the impairment of energy metabolism of tumor cells by inhibiting enzymes in the glycolysis pathway (hexokinase II, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphoglycerate kinase) and the oxidative phosphorylation (succinate dehydrogenase). Bromopyruvate induces endoplasmic reticulum stress, inhibits global protein synthesis further contributing to cancer cell death. Treatment with bromopyruvate has been administered in several cancer type models both in vitro and in vivo, either alone or in combination with other anticancer therapeutic approaches. These studies clearly demonstrate bromopyruvate broad action against multiple cancer types. This compound has also antifungal and antiparasitic activity.
