Brand name: Bortesam

Composition: Bortezomib

Mechanism of action:

Bortezomib is a proteasome inhibitor. It acts by blocking the proteasome, a cellular component that degrades ubiquitinated proteins. This causes the buildup of pro-apoptotic proteins and cell cycle regulators, which eventually induces apoptosis (programmed cell death) in malignant cells, particularly those with hematological malignancies. Consult a healthcare practitioner for particular treatment regimens.
