HK2-IN-3 (compound 12) potently inhibits purified HK2 enzyme with an IC50 of 0.0564 μM[1].
HK2-IN-3 (100 ns) binds selectively and stably to HK2 over HK1, with binding energies ranging between -190 and -270 kcal/mol and persistent interactions with critical HK2 active site residues[1].
HK2-IN-3 (1-5 μM; 72 h) reduces glucose uptake in Cal27 and FaDu OSCC cells when treated at 1, 3, or 5 μM for 72 h[1].
HK2-IN-3 inhibits proliferation of FaDu and Cal27 OSCC cells with GI50 values of 8.32 μM and 7.18 μM, respectively, and shows high selectivity for OSCC cells over HFF-1 normal fibroblasts[1].
HK2-IN-3 (5 μM) disrupts the 3D structure of Cal27 OSCC spheroids and increases cell death when treated at 5 μM[1].
HK2-IN-3 (10-30 μM; 4 h) induces mitophagy in Cal27 OSCC cells when treated at 30 μM for 4 h, via dissociation of mitoHK2, increased LC3B levels, and decreased p62 levels in mitochondrial fractions[1].
HK2-IN-3 (3-30 μM; 72 h) downregulates expression of GLUT1, GLUT4, EGFR, and VEGF in Cal27 OSCC cells when treated at 30 μM for 72 h, with partial inhibition of GLUT1 observed at 10 μM[1].
HK2-IN-3 (5 μM; 72 h) induces early to late apoptosis in Cal27 OSCC cells when treated at 5 μM for 72 h[1].

-
Cell Line:Cal27 OSCC cells
-
Concentration:10 μM; 30 μM
-
Incubation Time:4 h
-
Result:At 10 and 30 μM, induced dose-dependent dissociation of mitochondrial HK2 (mitoHK2) to the cytosol without altering total intracellular HK2 levels.
At 30 μM, significantly increased LC3-I and LC3-II levels in both mitochondrial and cytosolic fractions, and decreased p62 levels in mitochondrial fractions; immunofluorescence showed increased LC3B puncta formation and colocalization with mitochondria, confirming mitophagy induction.

Cell Line:Cal27 OSCC cells
-
Concentration:3 μM; 10 μM; 30 μM
-
Incubation Time:72 h
-
Result:At 10 μM, reduced GLUT1 expression; at 30 μM, significantly downregulated expression of GLUT1, GLUT4, EGFR, and VEGF.
Lower concentrations (3 μM) did not alter GLUT1 or GLUT4 expression despite reducing glucose uptake.
-
Cell Line:Cal27 OSCC cells
-
Concentration:5 μM
-
Incubation Time:72 h
-
Result:Induced early to late apoptosis in Cal27 cells, with higher apoptosis-inducing activity than compound 13 at the same concentration.

Animal Model:immunocompromised mice (5-week-old)[1]
-
Dosage:3 mg/kg; 10 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.p.; daily; 16 days
-
Result:Induced a significant, dose-dependent reduction in tumor volumes over the 16-day treatment period, with no notable decrease in animal body weight.
Observed a dose-dependent reduction in tumor weights.
Significantly down-regulated GLUT1, EGFR, and VEGF gene expression in tumor tissues at both 3 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg.
Significantly down-regulated mesenchymal marker N-cadherin gene expression in tumor tissues.
Showed a dose-dependent dissociation of mitochondrial HK2, a decrease in p62 levels, and an increase in LC3II levels in mitochondrial fractions from tumor tissues, indicating induction of mitophagy.
Showed no changes in total HK2 levels in total tumor lysates.
Reduced invasion to the dermal region and caused degenerative alterations in tumor tissues compared to the disease control group.
