TAPI-2
Based on 5 publication(s) in Google Scholar
TAPI-2 (TNF Protease Inhibitor 2) is a broad-spectrum inhibitor of matrix metalloprotease (MMP), tumour necrosis factorα-converting enzyme (TACE) and a disintegrin and metalloproteinase (ADAM), with an IC50 of 20 μM for MMP. TAPI-2 blocks the entry of infectious SARS-CoV.

Biological Activity

MMP 20 μM (IC50) |
The hydroxamate-based metalloprotease inhibitor TAPI-2 bounds to hmeprin with inhibition constants IC50 20±10 μM for hmeprin β subunit and 1.5±0.27 nM for hmeprin α subunit. Generally, hmeprin α is inhibited more strongly than the β subunit[1]. Without affecting ADAM17 expression, TAPI-2 dramatically decreases the protein levels of NICD and its downstream target HES-1 in both HCP-1 and HT29 cells. Moreover, treating cells with TAPI-2 significantly decreases the CSC phenotype by -50% in both CRC cell lines. The dose-dependent effects of TAPI-2 on the sphere formation and protein levels of NICD and HES-1 confirm that the concentration used (20 μM) is within the effective dose range of TAPI-2 (5-40 μM)[3].

Protocol
TAPI-2 is dissolved in DMSO and diluted with appropriate medium before use. All experiments are performed using 20 μM TAPI-2. Cells are cultured with or without TAPI-2 for 48 hours and then seeded at 3,000 cells per well in 96-well plates. After pretreatment, increasing doses of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) that are relevant to the recommended clinical dose (up to 2 μg/mL) are added, with or without TAPI-2, for 72 hours. Cell viability is assessed by adding MTT substrate (0.25% in phosphate-buffered saline [PBS]) in growth medium (1:5 dilution) to cells for 1 hour at 37°C. The cells are ished with PBS, and 100 μL of dimethyl sulfoxideis added. Optical density is measured at 570 nM, and relative MTT is presented as a percentage of control[3].
