BCS12
BCS12 is a CAIX inhibitor. BCS12 inhibits the viability of cancer cells under hypoxic conditions. BCS12 elevates ROS levels and suppresses the expression of HIF-1α and CA9. BCS12 downregulates Bcl-2, activates caspase-9, caspase-3, caspase-7 and Bax, and induces PARP cleavage and apoptosis. BCS12 reduces tumor burden, increases the number of apoptotic nuclei and restores tissue structure in rats bearing breast tumors. BCS12 can be used in research related to triple-negative breast cancer.

BCS12 (96 h) selectively inhibits the viability of triple-negative breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 under hypoxic conditions (IC50 = 15.49 µM and 18.81 µM), while showing extremely low toxicity toward non-tumorigenic MCF-10A cells (IC50 = 121.6 µM)[1].
BCS12 (5-10 µM; 14 days) dose-dependently inhibits the clonogenic survival capacity of MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 cells[1].
BCS12 (20 µM) inhibits hypoxia-induced expression of HIF-1α and CAIX proteins in MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 cells[1].
BCS12 (2-20 µM; 24 h) dose-dependently increases the ROS level in MDA-MB-231 cells, with the strongest effect observed at 20 µM[1].
BCS12 (5-20 µM; 24 h) dose-dependently regulates the expression of apoptotic proteins in MDA-MB-231 cells, downregulates the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2, activates the pro-apoptotic caspase-9 and caspase-3, and induces PARP cleavage. It also induces apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 cells under hypoxic conditions, upregulates the expression of pro-apoptotic genes Bax, caspase-9, caspase-3 and caspase-7, and downregulates the anti-apoptotic gene Bcl-2 as well as hypoxia-related CA9 and HIF-1α[1].

-
Cell Line:MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468 triple-negative breast cancer cells
-
Concentration:0, 5, 10 µM
-
Incubation Time:14 days
-
Result:Caused a dose-dependent decrease in colony formation in both cell lines, with MDA-MB-231 showing significantly reduced clonogenic survival at 10 µM compared to controls.
-
Cell Line:MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer cells
-
Concentration:5, 10, 20 µM
-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Caused a dose-dependent reduction in anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein levels.
Increased cleaved caspase-9, cleaved caspase-3, and cleaved PARP protein levels, indicating activation of the intrinsic apoptotic cascade.
-
Cell Line:MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer cells (hypoxic conditions)
-
Concentration:1, 2, 5, 10, 20 µM
-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Induced a dose-dependent increase in total apoptosis (Annexin V+/PI+ cells): 1 µM (4.43%, ns vs control), 2 µM (10.0%), 5 µM (16.9%), 10 µM (20.5%), and 20 µM (37.0%,).
Produced a 19-fold increase in apoptosis at 20 µM compared to DMSO-treated controls.
-
Cell Line:MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast cancer cells
-
Concentration:10, 20 µM
-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Caused a dose-dependent increase in Bax, caspase-9, and caspase-7 fluorescence intensity, indicating upregulation and activation of these pro-apoptotic proteins.
Significantly reduced Bcl-2 fluorescence intensity.
Induced nuclear condensation and fragmentation.

Animal Model:Sprague-Dawley (female nulliparous, virgin, 50-60 days old, 120-150 grams, acclimatized for 1 week before study, DMBA-induced breast cancer)[1]
-
Dosage:20 mg/kg; 40 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.p.; daily; 28 days
-
Result:Suppressed DMBA-induced body weight loss in a dose-dependent manner.
Produced a significant, dose-dependent reduction in tumor volume, with the 40 mg/kg group showing the greatest reduction over the 28-day treatment period.
Increased apoptotic nuclei in a dose-dependent manner: reached 22.8 TUNEL-positive cells/field at 20 mg/kg, and 44.7 TUNEL-positive cells/field at 40 mg/kg.
Increased contrast index (CI) values significantly in both treated groups compared to the DMBA-only group, with the highest CI in the 40 mg/kg group.
Restored tissue architecture in treated tumor sections.
