Sodium metatungstate
Based on 11 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Sodium metatungstate (Sodium polyoxotungstate) is a NTPDase inhibitor, with Ki values of 2.58 μM, 3.26 μM, and 28.8 μM for NTPDase 1 (CD39), NTPDase 3 and NTPDase 2 respectively. Sodium metatungstate has anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effect. Sodium metatungstate inhibits ATP breakdown but also blocks central synaptic transmission.

The photothermal effect of FIP on cancer cells was assessed by flow cytometry. As expected, both FI and FIP displayed obvious cytotoxic toward 4T1 cells when subjected to 808 nm laser irradiation (1.5 W/cm-2, 10 min), suggesting that ICG is responsible for the photothermal killing effect rather than Sodium metatungstate (POM-1).

The Ade level of the FI + Laser group was significantly higher than the control group and FIP + Laser group at 6 h after laser irradiation, indicating the PTT could enhance the Ade generation and Sodium metatungstate (POM-1) could inhibit the Ade generation.
