Cancer cells achievetheir required increased amount of energy by using different methods. One of them isoverexpressing amino acids transporters, such as SLC6A14 transporter. At present, thereis only one reported inhibitor of the protein, α-methyltryptophan, which shows very lowpotency. The lack of a method to detect SLC6A14 inhibitors might explain the scarcity ofavailable inhibitors. In this study, we tested four candidate fluorescent probes in an effortto develop a method to detect small molecule inhibitors of SLC6A14. Colony formationassay, chemosensitivity testing and fluorescence microscopy are used to detect theireffects. Results showed that the probes are not good substrates for the method.
