  3. Anagrelide

Anagrelide is a potent inhibitor of phosphodiesterase type III (PDE3) (IC50=36 nM). Anagrelide, an imidazoquinazoline derivative, acts as an inhibitor of platelet aggregation. Anagrelide inhibits bone marrow megakaryocytopoiesis. Anagrelide decreases gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) cell proliferation and promotes their apoptosis in vitro. Anagrelide is a platelet-lowering agent and plays in the antithrombopoietic action.

Description

Anagrelide is a potent inhibitor of phosphodiesterase type III (PDE3) (IC50=36 nM). Anagrelide, an imidazoquinazoline derivative, acts as an inhibitor of platelet aggregation. Anagrelide inhibits bone marrow megakaryocytopoiesis. Anagrelide decreases gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) cell proliferation and promotes their apoptosis in vitro. Anagrelide is a platelet-lowering agent and plays in the antithrombopoietic action[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target

PDEIII[1]

In Vitro

Anagrelide potently inhibits the development of marrow megakaryocytes (IC50=26 nM)[1].
Anagrelide (0.05, 0.3, 1 µM; 12-day) inhibits only megakaryocytic cell growth not non-megakaryocytic cells[2].
Anagrelide (0.1-10000 nM) induces a cytotoxic effect in the GIST882 cell line[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Proliferation Assay[2]

Cell Line: Megakaryocytic and non-megakaryocytic cells
Concentration: 0.05, 0.3, 1 µM
Incubation Time: 12-day
Result: Inhibited only megakaryocytic cell growth at every concentration tested

Cell Cytotoxicity Assay[3]

Cell Line: GIST882 and GIST48 cell line
Concentration: 0.1, 1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000 nM
Incubation Time:
Result: Induced a cytotoxic effect in the GIST882 cell line (IC50= 16 nM), but was only weakly active in the GIST48 cell line.
In Vivo

Anagrelide (5 mg/kg/bid; for 10 days) inhibits or reduces tumor growth in GIST2B, GIST9, GIST882 model models[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Adult female athymic mice bearing GIST2B, GIST3, GIST9, GIST882 model[3]
Dosage: 5 mg/kg
Administration: Twice daily; for 10 days
Result: Inhibited or reduced tumor growth in three (GIST2B, GIST9, GIST882) of these four models.

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.
