ZEN-3694
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
ZEN-3694 (BET-IN-19) is an orally active BET inhibitor. ZEN-3694 regulates the function of BET proteins, thereby downregulating pathways involved in cell cycle regulation, ER signaling, AR signaling, AR splice variants, MYC, GR, cell growth, inflammation, and cellular immune responses. ZEN-3694 inhibits proliferation, induces apoptosis, reverses the upregulation of CDK6 and CCND1, restores cell cycle arrest, and inhibits CDK6 via miR-34a-5p. ZEN-3694 can be used in research related to HER2 breast cancer and metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

ZEN-3694 (7 days with re-treatment on day 3 or 4) inhibits proliferation of HCC-1428, ZR-75-1, CAMA-1, MCF-7, palbociclib-resistant MCF-7, and abemaciclib-resistant MCF-7 ER+ breast cancer cell lines with IC50 values ranging 0.3-2.6 μM, and exhibits similar antiproliferative activity in both wild-type and CDK4/6 inhibitor-resistant cells[1].
The combination of ZEN-3694 and abemaciclib (0.25X-2X IC50 constant ratios; 7 days with re-treatment on day 3 or 4) synergistically inhibits proliferation of MCF-7, PALBO-R MCF-7, and ABEMA-R MCF-7 cells with CI values of 0.07-0.36[1].
ZEN-3694 (nanomolar range; 5 days) potently reduces viability of palbociclib-resistant MCF7-R100 and T47D-R100 ER+ breast cancer cells maintained in palbociclib with nanomolar potency, with resistant cells showing greater sensitivity than parental MCF7 cells[3].
ZEN-3694 (nanomolar range; 14 days) suppresses long-term colony formation of palbociclib-resistant MCF7-R100 and T47D-R100 ER+ breast cancer cells maintained in palbociclib with nanomolar potency, with resistant cells showing greater sensitivity than parental MCF7 cells[3].
ZEN-3694 (0.5-4 μM; 6 h) dose-dependently downregulates CDK6, CDK4, ESR1, MYC, BCLXL, and BCL2 mRNA and upregulates HEXIM1 mRNA in MCF-7 and PALBO-R MCF-7 cells[1].
ZEN-3694 (1 μM) downregulates elevated CDK6 protein levels in PALBO-R and ABEMA-R MCF-7 cells, and downregulates ERα protein levels in MCF-7, PALBO-R MCF-7, and ABEMA-R MCF-7 cells[1].
ZEN-3694 alters the expression of over 11,000 genes and inhibits key tumorigenic pathways (including estrogen-mediated S-phase entry, STAT3, and VEGF signaling) in MCF-7, PALBO-R MCF-7, and ABEMA-R MCF-7 cells[1].
ZEN-3694 (1×100 IC50; 7 days with re-treatment on day 3 or 4) induces apoptosis in MCF-7 (27.3%), PALBO-R MCF-7 (34.5%), and ABEMA-R MCF-7 (21.4%) cells after 7-day treatment[1].
The combination of ZEN-3694 and abemaciclib (1×100 IC50; 7 days with re-treatment on day 3 or 4) induces high levels of apoptosis (75.2% in MCF-7, 60.2% in PALBO-R MCF-7, 50.4% in ABEMA-R MCF-7) in wild-type and CDK4/6 inhibitor-resistant ER+ breast cancer cells after 7-day treatment[1].
ZEN-3694 induces transcriptional upregulation of miR-34a-5p in palbociclib-resistant MCF7-R100 ER+ breast cancer cells[3].
ZEN-3694 (varying concentrations (unspecified numerically)) induces dose-dependent reduction of CDK6, cyclin D1, cyclin E2, phosphorylated Rb, ERα, and c-MYC protein expression in palbociclib-resistant MCF7-R100 ER+ breast cancer cells[3].
ZEN-3694 (24 h; 2-5 days) induces G1 cell cycle arrest within 24 hours and time-dependent apoptosis after extended exposure in palbociclib-resistant MCF7-R100 ER+ breast cancer cells[3].
ZEN-3694 suppresses BCL-2 protein expression and induces PARP cleavage in palbociclib-resistant MCF7-R100 ER+ breast cancer cells maintained in palbociclib, with these effects attenuated when palbociclib is removed[3].
