Active ingredients

The drug SPECTRILA contains one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API):

1 L-asparagine-amidohydrolase UNII G4FQ3CKY5R - ASPARAGINASE

Asparaginase hydrolyses asparagine to aspartic acid and ammonia. In contrast to normal cells, lymphoblastic tumour cells have a very limited capacity for synthesising asparagine because of a significantly reduced expression of asparagine synthetase. Therefore, they require asparagine which diffuses from the extracellular environment. As a result of asparaginase-induced asparagine depletion in serum, protein synthesis in lymphoblastic tumour cells is disturbed while sparing most normal cells. Read about Asparaginase
