KHS101 is a blood-brain barrier-penetrant anticancer agent that primarily functions by inhibiting HSPD1 (IC₅₀ = 14.4 μM) and TACC3 across different cellular backgrounds. KHS101 promotes the aggregation of HSPD1 with client proteins, destabilizes TACC3, and reduces the levels of TACC3, Aurora A and PLK1. KHS101 induces autophagy, apoptosis, cell cycle exit and neuronal differentiation; it suppresses cancer cell growth, motility, EMT and stemness; it also impairs mitochondrial bioenergetics and glycolysis in glioblastoma cells. KHS101 can be used in research related to glioblastoma multiforme and breast cancer.

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.
