Development of antitumor biguanides targeting energy metabolism and stress responses in the tumor microenvironment

Abstract To develop antitumor drugs capable of targeting energy metabolism in the tumor microenvironment, we produced a series of potent new biguanide derivatives via structural modification of the arylbiguanide scaffold. We then conducted biological screening using hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1-...
