YM155 Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

YM-155 (781661-94-7) is a novel small molecule survivin suppressant. YM-155 suppresses expression of survivin (a member of the IAP family) and induced apoptosis in human tumor cell lines at 10 nmol/L with little effect on other IAP or Bcl-2 family members.1?Overcomes erlotinib resistance in EGFR mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer.2?Induces DNA damage.3?YM-155 induces an autophagy-dependent cell death in adenoid cystic carcinoma cells.4

Uses

YM155 is a potent IAP (inhibitor of apoptosis proteins) inhibitor for survivin with IC50 of 0.54 nM.

Uses

YM155 is a novel small-molecule survivin suppressant that suppressed expression of survivin and induced apoptosis in PC-3 and PPC-1 human HRPC. cell lines. Potent Survivin Inhibitor.

Definition

ChEBI: Sepantronium bromide is an organic bromide salt consisting of sepantronium cations and bromide anions. It has been found to selectively inhibit survivin (BIRC5) gene promoter activity and to down-regulate survivin in vitro, so leading to induction of apoptosis. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent, a survivin suppressant and an apoptosis inducer. It contains a sepantronium.
