PTC-209 (PTC209 Usage And Synthesis

Description

PTC-209 (315704-66-6) is an inhibitor of BMI-1 (IC50 = 500 nM), part of the polycomb repressive complex 1 (PCR1).1? It inhibited endogenous BMI-1 expression in human colorectal HCT116 and human fibrosarcoma HT1080 tumor cells resulting in reduced tumor volume as well as reduced cancer initiating cell (CIC) number.?? PTC-209 displayed potent in vivo antitumor effects in several cancer models including breast2, head and neck3, glioblastoma4, prostate5, colon5, and rhabdomyosarcoma6. It also promoted chemically-induced direct cardiac reprogramming of cardiac fibroblasts into cardiac myocytes.7,8

Uses

Polycomb complex protein BMI-1 is a polycomb ring finger oncogene that regulates the p16 and p19 cell cycle inhibitor genes. It is necessary for efficient self-renewing cell divisions of stem cells in several tissues and can be over-expressed in tumors. PTC-209 is a BMI-1 inhibitor (IC50 = ~ 0.5 μM) that irreversibly impairs colorectal cancer-initiating cell (CIC) growth. It reduces tumor growth in CIC xenograft assays and abrogates colorectal cancer cell self-renewal in vivo, reducing their tumorigenic potential.[Cayman Chemical]

Uses

PTC 209 is a compound involved in thedown-reglation of NOTCH signaling and aids in suppressing acute leukemia cells.

Uses

PTC-209 has been used as a B lymphoma Mo-MLV insertion region 1 homolog (BMI1) inhibitor to study its effects on:

• the cell viability of canine osteosarcoma (OSA) cell lines
• lipidated microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3B-II) and Sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1) protein levels in ovarian cancer (OvCa) cells
• cardiac reprogramming efficiency in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF)

Biochem/physiol Actions

PTC-209 inhibits the expression of the oncogene BMI-1 (B lymphoma Mo-MLV insertion region 1 homolog), which encodes a polycomb group RING finger protein involved in cell cycle. PTC-209 lowers the self-renewal properties of colorectal cancer-initiating cells (CICs) The compound inhibits tumor growth, and reduces the levels of CICs present in colon cancer tumor xenografts in mice.

storage

Store at -20°C
