BTSA1 is a potent, high affinity and orally active BAX activator with an IC50 of 250 nM and an EC50 of 144 nM. BTSA1 binds with high affinity and specificity to the N-terminal activation site and induces conformational changes to BAX leading to BAX-mediated apoptosis[1].

In Vitro

BTSA1 (5 μM; 6-24 hours; human AML cell lines) treatment reduced viability of all AML cell lines and displays substantial cell death activity within 6 hours[1].
BTSA1 (2.5-10 μM; 6 hours; NB4 cells) treatment induces BAX translocation coincided with the release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria to the cytosol. Significant BAX mitochondrial translocation is induced in a BTSA1 dose-dependent manner[1].
BTSA1 (0.15625-10 μM; 4-24 hours; OCI-AML3 cells) treatment induces dose-dependent caspase-3/7 activation in OCI-AML3 cells. Caspase-3/7 activation is monitored within 4-24 hours and maximal caspase-3/7 activation is detected in 4 hours[1].

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.
