Casimiroin is a QR2 and Aromatase inhibitor, with an IC50 of 54.1 μM against QR2 and an IC50 of 3.92 μM against aromatase. Casimiroin exhibits antimutagenic activity and inhibits DMBA (HY-W011845)-induced mutations in Salmonella typhimurium. Casimiroin suppresses DMBA-induced precancerous lesions in mouse mammary organ cultures. Casimiroin can be used in breast cancer-related research.

In Vitro

Casimiroin (0.4-500 μM) inhibits purified human QR2 with an IC50 of 54.1 μM[1].
Casimiroin (range of concentrations; 10 min preincubation; 30 min enzyme incubation; 2 h post-quench incubation) inhibits recombinant aromatase (CYP19) with an IC50 of 3.92 μM[1].
Casimiroin (0-20 μg/mL; 72 h) is not cytotoxic to Hepa 1c1c7, MCF7, LNCaP, or LU cell lines, with IC50 values >85.81 μM[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
