Chromomycin A3
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Chromomycin A3 is an inhibitor that selectively binds to GC-rich DNA sequences. Chromomycin A3 targets the DNA minor groove after forming a dimer with Mg2+. Chromomycin A3 inhibits DNA replication and transcription, blocks the binding of Sp1 transcription factor to target gene promoters, downregulates the expression of anti-apoptotic proteins such as FLIP, Mcl-1, and XIAP, and induces S-phase cycle arrest and caspase-dependent apoptosis in tumor cells. Chromomycin A3 can antagonize oxidative stress induced by glutathione depletion and neuronal apoptosis induced by Camptothecin (HY-15660). Chromomycin A3 can be used in basic research on malignant tumors such as cholangiocarcinoma, and is a potential chemosensitizer and GC-rich region probe.

Chromomycin A3 (2.5-160 nM; 24 h, 48 h) inhibits the proliferation of cholangiocarcinoma cells KKU-213, KKU-055, and KKU-100 in a dose- and time-dependent manner, with IC50s ??of 22.48 nM, 21.14 nM, and 30.52 nM at 24 h, respectively.
Chromomycin A3 (2.5-10 nM; 24 h) induces S phase arrest of KKU-213 and KKU-055 cells at low concentrations. At high concentrations, Chromomycin A3 (10-40 nM; 24 h) induces dose-dependent apoptosis by activating the caspase-8/-9/-3 pathway, and the proportion of early and late apoptotic cells increased significantly[1].

Incubation Time:24 h and 48 h
-
Result:Reduced cell viability in a dose- and time-dependent manner, with IC50 values of 22.48±4.08 nM (KKU-213), 21.14±2.24 nM (KKU-055), and 30.52±2.91 nM (KKU-100) at 24 h; with IC50 values of 9.79±1.15 nM, 13.34±1.28 nM, and 14.74±1.34 nM at 48 h, for the respective cell lines.

Animal Model:Rag-2/Jak3 double-deficient Balb/c mouse (male; 22-25 g, 6-8 weeks old) cholangiocarcinoma xenograft model[1]
-
Dosage:0.5 mg/kg
-
Administration:Intravenous injection via tail vein, once weekly, for 3 weeks
-
Result:Significantly reduced tumor growth compared to the DMSO control group, decreased tumor weight.
Resulted a significant reduction in Ki-67-positive proliferating cells, and increased expression of pro-apoptotic proteins caspase-9 and Bax in tumor tissues.
No significant toxicity was observed, as body weight and general health remained stable throughout the experiment.
