Bioactivity

• In Vivo:
  Bestatin is an active anti-angiogenic agent that may inhibit tumor angiogenesis in vivo and tube-like formation of endothelial cells in vitro through its Inhibition of APN/CD13 activity. Oral administration of Bestatin (100-200 mg/kg/day) is found to significantly inhibi the melanoma cell-induced angiogenesis in a mouse dorsal air sac assay.
• In Vitro:
  Bestatin, also known as Ubenimex (INN), is a competitive protease inhibitor. It is an inhibitor of aminopeptidase B, leukotriene A4 hydrolase, aminopeptidase N. It is being studied for use in the treatment of acute myelocytic leukemia. Bestatin can be administered, with low toxicity, to cultured cells, intact animals and humans. It has become a useful tool in elucidatin the physiological role of some mammalian exopeptidases in the regulation o the immune system, in the growth of tumors and their invasion of surrounding tissues, and in the degradation of cellular proteins.
• Cell Research:
  Growing cells ( × 06 to × 06 cells/mL) are diluted to 1. × 03 cells mL and transferred (3 mL) into a well in a 12-well multiwell plate (2.5 cm diameter/well). Cells are treated with 0, 10, 50, 100, 300, or 600 μM Bestatin and allowed to grow at 21°C shaking at 180 rpm for 48 h. A hemocytometer is used to measure cell density after 0, 24, and 48 h.
