Structure‐based discovery of thiamine uptake inhibitors

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 22, Page 5611-5626, November 2025.
Background and Purpose Thiamine (vitamin B1) is an essential coenzyme and catalyses various reactions in central metabolic pathways. Since mammals have lost the ability to synthesise thiamine de novo, this micronutrient has to be imported via the high affinity solute carriers SLC19A2 and A3 across the plasma membrane.
