Picropodophyllotoxin

SKU: orb1300325

Description

Picropodophyllin (PPP) is a potent and selective IGF-1R inhibitor with an IC50 of 1 nM. It downregulates IGF1R expression without affecting related receptors like InsR. This specificity makes it a valuable research tool for studying IGF-1R signaling in cancer models, both in vitro and in vivo.

Bioactivity

• Target IC50:
  IGF-1R:1 nM
• In Vivo:
  In SCID mice xenografted with human ES-1, BE, and PC3, Picropodophyllin (20 mg/kg/12 h, i.p.) causes complete tumor regression. In the 5T33 mM mouse model, Picropodophyllin also shows a marked antitumor activity, and causes a significant increase in survival.
• In Vitro:
  In intact cells, PPP efficiently inhibits IGF-1-stimulated IGF-1R, Akt (Ser 473) and Erk1/2 phosphorylation. Picropodophyllin specifically inhibits cell growth, and induces apoptosis in cultured IGF-1R-positive tumor cells. Picropodophyllin synergistically sensitizes HMCL, primary human MM and murine 5T33 mM cells to ABT-737 and ABT-199 by further decreasing cell viability and enhancing apoptosis. Picropodophyllin and sorafenib synergistically suppress the proliferation and motility of hepatocellular carcinoma cells.
• Cell Research:
  The determinations are performed using the Cell proliferation kit II, which is based on colorimetric change of the yellow tetrazolium salt 2,3-bis[2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl]-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide inner salt in orange formazan dye by the respiratory chain of viable cell. All of the standards and experiments are performed in triplicates. (Only for Reference)
