PX-478 is a multifunctional HIF-1α inhibitor with properties including radiosensitization, autophagy activation, and lipid accumulation inhibition. PX-478 also blocks hypoxia-induced VEGF production and regulates β-cell phenotypes under hypoxic conditions. PX-478 induces cell cycle arrest and DNA damage, restores autophagic function, reduces foam cell formation, and maintains glucose homeostasis. PX-478 is widely used in research on related diseases such as human tumors (e.g., prostate cancer), type 2 diabetes, and atherosclerosis.

In Vitro

PX-478 (25 μM; 16 h) inhibits HIF-1α translation in human breast cancer MCF-7 cells under both normoxic and hypoxic conditions, with a more pronounced effect under hypoxic conditions; it also reduces global protein synthesis (especially under hypoxic conditions), yet does not alter the phosphorylation levels of hypoxia-induced translation pathway components eIF2α and 4E-BP, and suppresses the reporter gene activity driven by the 5'-UTR of HIF-1α and c-Myc^[1].
PX-478 (20-50 μM; 20 h) inhibits HIF-1α protein in human prostate cancer cell lines PC3 and DU 145. Its activity in PC3 cells (with an IC₅₀ of 20-25 μM under normoxic conditions) is stronger than that in DU 145 cells (with an IC₅₀ of approximately 40-50 μM under normoxic conditions), and it also attenuates hypoxia-induced HIF-1α accumulation in both cell lines^[2].
PX-478 (16-35 μM; 18-20 hr) reduces the clonogenic survival rate of PC3 and DU 145 human prostate cancer cells; PC3 cells show higher sensitivity under normoxic conditions (IC₅₀ 17 μM), while the sensitivity of DU 145 cells increases under hypoxic conditions (IC₅₀ 22 μM)^[2].
PX-478 (15-20 μM; 24 hr) enhances the radiosensitivity of human PC3 prostate cancer cells under normoxic irradiation conditions, with an enhancement factor (EF) of 1.44 at 20 μM (24 hr incubation) and 1.19 at 15 μM (24 hr incubation)^[2].
PX-478 (20-30 μM; 20 hr) enhances the radiosensitivity of hypoxic-irradiated human prostate cancer PC3 cells, with an enhancement factor (EF) of 1.56 at 20 μM (pretreated under normoxic conditions for 20 hours) and 1.78 at 30 μM (pretreated under normoxic conditions for 20 hours)^[2].
Treatment with PX-478 (10-50 μM; 24 hr) induces S/G2M phase arrest in the human prostate cancer cell line PC3, but exerts no significant effect on the cell cycle distribution of the human prostate cancer cell line DU 145^[2].
PX-478 (20 μM; 30 min-18 hr) induces sustained phosphorylation of γH2AX (a marker of DNA double-strand breaks) in human prostate cancer cell lines PC3 and DU 145, and prolongs radiation-induced γH2AX expression in PC3 cells even after only a short (30 min) treatment^[2].
PX-478 improves pancreatic β-cell function in islets of mice with glucose metabolism disorders by inhibiting abnormal low-glucose intracellular Ca²⁺ oscillations and excessive basal insulin release^[3].
PX-478 (100 μM; 48 h) restores autophagic function, inhibits ferroptosis and reduces lipid accumulation in ox-LDL-induced THP-1 macrophage foam cells by downregulating HIF-1α, and these effects depend on intact autophagy^[4].

Stock Solution Working Solution

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

Protocol 1

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline

Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (12.69 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

Protocol 2

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (12.69 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

Protocol 3

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% Corn Oil

Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (12.69 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Protocol 4

Add each solvent one by one: 5% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 50% Saline

Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.34 mM); Clear solution

Protocol 5

Add each solvent one by one: 5% DMSO 95% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.34 mM); Clear solution

Protocol 6

Add each solvent one by one: 1% DMSO 99% Saline

Solubility: ≥ 0.5 mg/mL (1.27 mM); Clear solution

Working Solution

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly:

It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.

The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
