JHU-083 is an experimental drug which acts as a glutaminase inhibitor. It is a prodrug which is cleaved in vivo to the active form 6-diazo-5-oxo-L-norleucine. It has been researched for the treatment of various neurological conditions such as depression, Alzheimer's disease, and cerebral malaria,[1][2][3] as well as multiple sclerosis,[4] atherosclerosis,[5] hepatitis,[6] and some forms of cancer in which it was found to target senescent cells.[7][8][9][10]
