CX-5461 dihydrochloride is a selective, orally active RNA polymerase I inhibitor. CX-5461 dihydrochloride disrupts the formation of the SL1-rDNA complex, thereby blocking the transcription initiation of ribosomal RNA without altering the activity of RNA polymerase II, DNA replication, or protein translation processes. CX-5461 dihydrochloride upregulates the expression of p21, MDM2, Sestrin1/2, and phosphorylated AMPKα, and reduces the level of phosphorylated Akt. CX-5461 dihydrochloride induces G2/G2/M cell cycle arrest, Autophagy, Apoptosis, and cellular senescence, and activates CHK1, CHK2, and RPA. CX-5461 dihydrochloride can be used in research related to osteosarcoma, cervical cancer, hematologic malignancies, high-grade serous ovarian cancer, and solid tumors.

In Vitro

CX-5461 (0.5-5 μM; 72 h) dihydrochloride inhibits the proliferation of MNNG/HOS and U2-OS osteosarcoma cell lines and induces G₂ phase cell cycle arrest (but does not induce apoptosis), with an IC₅₀ of 0.5-1.5 μM; this drug exerts stronger efficacy on MNNG/HOS cells, while exerting minimal effects on normal NIH3T3 fibroblasts^[1].
CX-5461 (1-5 μM; 72 h) dihydrochloride inhibits mTOR activity in MNNG/HOS and U2-OS osteosarcoma cell lines. Its mechanism of action involves downregulating the Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in MNNG/HOS cells, while upregulating the AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway in U2-OS cells^[1].
CX-5461 dihydrochloride inhibits the viability of cervical cancer C33A cells, HeLa cells, and normal keratinocyte HaCat cells, with distinct IC₅₀ values for each cell line^[2].
CX-5461 dihydrochloride potently and selectively inhibits Pol I-mediated rRNA transcription, exhibiting 200- to 300-fold higher selectivity for Pol I transcription over Pol II-mediated transcription in HCT-116, A375 and MIA PaCa-2 solid tumor cells^[5].
CX-5461 dihydrochloride induces p53-dependent apoptotic cell death in p53 wild-type hematologic cancer cell lines (SR, MV 4;11), with viability IC₅₀ values of 5 nM and 12 nM, respectively, while p53-null K562 cells show 10- to 20-fold reduced sensitivity^[3].
CX-5461 (300 nM; 24 h) dihydrochloride induces autophagy in A375 melanoma cells and MIA PaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cells, which is evidenced by enhanced LC3B-II staining and concentration-dependent accumulation of acidic vesicular organelles^[5].
CX-5461 (300 nM; 24 h) dihydrochloride induces cellular senescence in A375 melanoma cells and MIA PaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cells, as detected by senescence-associated β-galactosidase staining^[5].

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
