Bax activator-2
Bax activator-2 is a pro-apoptotic agent targeting BAX, with an IC50 of 0.30 μM against human BAX. Bax activator-2 binds to the trigger site of BAX and induces its conformational change. Bax activator-2 induces mitochondrial depolarization, cytochrome c release, cleavage of caspase-3/9 and PARP, thereby initiating apoptosis. Bax activator-2 exhibits cytotoxicity against a variety of cancer cell lines. Bax activator-2 can be used in research related to acute myeloid leukemia and solid tumors.

Bax activator-2 (compound 27c) (0.024-100 μM) selectively binds to recombinant human BAX with a submicromolar IC50 of 0.30 μmol/L in a competitive fluorescence polarization binding assay[1].
Bax activator-2 (100 μM; 1-4 h) induces time-dependent oligomerization of recombinant human BAX protein in vitro[1].
Bax activator-2 (40 μM; 1 h) selectively binds to BAX (but not BAK) in BxPC-3 cells, which is evidenced by the significant increase in the thermal stability of BAX after treatment[1].
Bax activator-2 induces dose-dependent translocation of recombinant human BAX to mitochondria-mimicking liposomes, and its activity is enhanced when used in combination with BIM SAHB[1].
Bax activator-2 (40 μM) acts synergistically with the BIM-BH3 peptide to enhance the permeability of ANTS/DPX-loaded liposomes mediated by recombinant human BAX[1].
Bax activator-2 (serial dilution; 48 h) exhibits BAX-dependent cytotoxicity, with IC50 values in the submicromolar to low micromolar range against hematologic cancer cell lines, while showing low toxicity toward non-cancerous cell lines[1].
Bax activator-2 (serial dilution; 6 h) induces dose-dependent translocation of BAX to mitochondria and cytochrome c release in THP-1 cells[1].
Bax activator-2 (2-10 μM; 20 h) induces dose-dependent apoptosis in THP-1 cells, and 62.8% of cells are in the late apoptotic stage after treatment with 10 μM for 20 h[1].

Cell Line:THP-1, MV-4-11, OCI-AML3, U937, NB4, A549, HCT116, SW480, BxPC-3, COS7, HEK293T, STO, THLE-2 cells
-
Concentration:Serial dilutions
-
Incubation Time:48 h total
-
Result:Exhibited potent cytotoxicity against hematologic cancer cell lines: THP-1 (IC50 = 2.36 μM), U937 (IC50 = 3.14 μM), NB4 (IC50 = 4.52 μM), OCI-AML3 (IC50 = 3.69 μM), MV-4-11 (IC50 = 7.47 μM).
Showed moderate potency in wild-type A549 cells (IC50 = 6.97 μM) but drastically reduced potency in BAX-/- A549 cells (IC50 > 80 μM).
Cytotoxicity was low in non-cancerous cell lines: HEK293T (IC50 = 41.55 μM), COS7, STO, THLE-2 (IC50 > 80 μM).
