DV1
DV1 is a CXCR4 inhibitor with anti-proteolytic properties that specifically blocks the binding of SDF-1α to its receptor. DV1 inhibits the migration of breast cancer cells and enables the targeted delivery of avidin-PLGA nanoparticles to CXCR4-expressing cancer cells. DV1 not only effectively suppresses the progression of metastatic breast cancer in mouse models, but also preferentially accumulates in brain tumor tissues rather than normal brain tissues, showing potential for inhibiting intracranial tumor metastasis. As a humoral immune stimulant, DV1 induces the production of specific IgG, neutralizing antibodies and cellular immune responses, thereby providing the host with protection against lethal challenges. DV1 has been applied to studies on CXCR4-expressing cancers, glioblastoma, dengue fever and other related diseases.

Biological Activity
|
SDF-1α-CXCR4 |
DV1 (100 nM; 30 min pre-incubation + 24 h) significantly inhibits SDF-1α-induced migration of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
-
Cell Line:MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells
-
Concentration:100 nM (pre-incubation); 100 nM (transwell culture)
-
Incubation Time:30 min (pre-incubation); 24 h (transwell culture)
-
Result:Significantly inhibited the migration of MDA-MB-231 cells toward the SDF-1α gradient (p < 0.01).
Left over 99% of migrated cells alive after 24 h of treatment.

-
Animal Model:NCRNU (female, 8 weeks old, intracranial metastatic breast cancer model via right hemisphere intracranial injection of 3×105 luciferase-expressing MDA-MB-231 cells)[2]
-
Dosage:50 μg/kg/day
-
Administration:intracerebroventricular; continuous infusion; starting on tumor cell injection day
-
Result:Detected roughly twice as many particles in tumor tissue compared to adjacent normal brain tissue, with statistically significant difference.
Reduced tumor incidence to 54.5% (n=22), with statistically significant difference from control's 83% (P=0.0361).
Resulted in smaller average tumor size in mice with tumors, though difference was not statistically significant.
