    Description

    CX-5461 dihydrochloride is a potent and orally bioavailable inhibitor of Pol I-mediated rRNA synthesis, with IC50s of 142 nM in HCT-116, 113 nM in A375, and 54 nM in MIA PaCa-2 cells, and shows little or no effect on Pol II (IC50 ≥25 μM).

    IC50 & Target

    IC50: 54 nM (rRNA synthesis, MIA PaCa-2 cells), 113 nM (rRNA synthesis, A375 cells), 142 nM (rRNA synthesis, HCT-116 cells)[1]

    In Vitro

    CX-5461 is a potent and orally bioavailable inhibitor of Pol I-mediated rRNA synthesis, with IC50s of 142 nM in HCT-116, 113 nM in A375, and 54 nM in MIA PaCa-2 cells, and shows little or no effect on Pol II (IC50, ≥25 μM). CX-5461 has modest inhibition on DNA replication and protein translation. CX-5461 also exhibits broad antiproliferative activity against a panel of human cancer cell lines, with a mean EC50 of 147 nM, but has minimal effect on viability of nontransformed human cells, with EC50 values of appr 5000 nM. EC50s of CX-5461 for HCT-116, A375, and MIA PaCa-2 cell lines are 167, 58, and 74 nM, respectively. CX-5461 induces autophagy and senescence in solid tumor cancer cells, rather than apoptosis, through a p53-independent process[1]. Eμ-Myc lymphoma cells from tumor-bearing mice are exquisitely sensitive to CX-5461 with an IC50 of 27.3 nM ± 8.1 nM for Pol I transcription after 1 hr and IC50 of 5.4 nM ± 2.1 nM for cell death after 16 hr. CX-5461 activates p53 via the nucleolar stress response in Eμ-MycLymphoma Cells[2].

    In Vivo

    CX-5461 displays antitumor activity against human solid tumors in murine xenograft models. CX-5461 (50 mg/kg, p.o.) shows significant MIA PaCa-2 growth inhibition with TGI equal to 69% on day 31 and 79% TGI on A375 on day 32[1]. CX-5461 (50 mg/kg, p.o.) inhibits the Eμ-Myc tumor cells with 84% repression in Pol I transcription at 1 hr posttreatment in C57BL/6 mice. CX-5461 also induces a rapid reduction in tumor burden in the lymph nodes and a concomitant reduction of spleen size to within the normal range[2].

    Cell Assay
    [1]

    Cells are plated on 96-well plates and treated the next day with dose response of CX-5461 for 96 hours. Cell viability is determined using Alamar Blue and CyQUANT assays[1].

    Animal Administration
    [1]

    Mice[1]
    Animal experiments are performed with 5- to 6-week-old female athymic (NCr nu/nu fisol) mice of Balb/c. Mice are inoculated with athymic (NCr nu/nu fisol) mice in 100 μL of cell suspension subcutaneously in the right flank. Tumor measurements are performed by caliper analysis, and tumor volume is calculated using the formula (l×w2)/2, where w=width and l=length in mm of the tumor. established tumors (appr 110-120 mm3) are randomized into vehicle (50 mM NaH2PO4, pH 4.5), NSC 613327, or CX-5461 treatment groups. Tumor growth inhibition (TGI) is determined on the last day of study according to the formula: TGI (%)=[100 − (VfD− ViD)/ (VfV − ViV) × 100], where ViV is the initial mean tumor volume in vehicle-treated group, VfV is the final mean tumor volume in vehicle-treated group, ViD is the initial mean tumor volume in drug-treated group, and VfD is the final mean tumor volume in drug-treated group.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
