PQ401
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
PQ401 is a potent inhibitor of IGF-IR signaling. PQ401 inhibits IGF-I-stimulated IGF-IR autophosphorylation with an IC50 of 12.0 μM in a series of studies in MCF-7 cells. PQ401 is effective at inhibiting IGF-I-stimulated growth of MCF-7 cells (IC50, 6 μM). PQ401 is a potential agent for breast and other IGF-I-sensitive cancers. PQ401 induces caspase-mediated apoptosis.

PQ401 (1, 5, 10, 25, and 50 μM; 3 days) inhibits proliferation of cultured MCF-7 cells grown in serum or IGF-I in MCF-7 cells[1].
Twenty-four hours of treatment with 15 μM PQ401 induces caspase-mediated apoptosis[1].
PQ401 inhibits autophosphorylation of the IGF-IR kinase domain at concentrations <100 nM, with an IC50 <1 μM.

Concentration:1, 5, 10, 25, and 50 μM
-
Incubation Time:3 days
-
Result:Significantly reduced proliferation (IC50, 8 μM) at concentrations in the range of 1 μM.
Produced a dramatic reduction in cell number from pretreatment levels at concentrations >10 μM.

-
Animal Model:Female mice were MCNeuA tumor cells[1]
-
Dosage:50 or 100 mg/kg
-
Administration:Administered i.p. thrice a week; 24 days
-
Result:Resulted in a significant dose-dependent reduction in tumor growth. Tumor growth in the animals treated with 100 mg/kg was 20% of that in the vehicle-treated controls. This dosing protocol was well tolerated by the animals.

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 1.43 mg/mL (4.18 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.43 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
