HS-72
HS-72 is a selective allosteric inducible heat shock protein 70 Hsp70i inhibitor. HS-72 reduces ATP affinity of Hsp70i, elevates caspase 3/7 apoptotic activity, and promotes degradation of Hsp70 client proteins, including HER2 and Akt, and blocks DENV entry by disrupting Hsp70i association with the DENV receptor complex. HS-72 can be used for breast cancer and dengue virus infection research.

HS-72 acts as an allosteric inhibitor of Hsp70i. It only reduces the ATP-binding affinity of Hsp70i without inhibiting its intrinsic ATPase activity, and can induce conformational rearrangement of purified Hsp70 protein[1].
HS-72 (0.001-0.1 mM) was identified via FLECS chemoproteomic screening. Biochemical tests including affinity pull-down, thermofluor melting assay and limited proteolysis-mass spectrometry verify that HS-72 selectively binds Hsp70i over constitutive Hsc70, while Hsp90 recovery is considered nonspecific in the affinity-resin assay[1].
HS-72 (25, 50 μM; 48-72 h) inhibits proliferation of BT474, MCF-7 and SkBr3 breast cancer cells, while non-tumorigenic MCF10A and RWPE1 cells are relatively insensitive to HS-72[1].
HS-72 (1-100 μM; 24 h) dose-dependently elevates caspase 3/7 apoptotic activity in BT474, HeLa, HepG2, T47D and LNCaP tumor cell lines[1].
HS-72 (10, 50 μM; 24 h) promotes degradation of Hsp70 client proteins HER2 and Akt in BT474 and MCF-7 breast cancer cells, and shows stronger degradation activity when combined with HS-10[1].
HS-72 (50, 100 μM; 18 h) induces accumulation of insoluble mutant HttQ74-GFP aggregates in PC12 neuronal cells[1].
HS-72 (50-100 nmol/mL; 1 h pretreatment; 24 h post-infection) dose-dependently reduces DENV infection in U937+DC-SIGN cells while maintaining cell viability at concentrations below 90 nmol/mL[2].
HS-72 reduces infectious DENV production in a foci forming assay, with an EC50 of 22.8 nmol/mL[2].
HS-72 (75 nmol/mL) inhibits DENV infection at the early stage of the viral life cycle, and significantly reduces viral RNA at the entry stage in U937+DC-SIGN cells[2].
HS-72 (75 nmol/mL; 1 h pretreatment) disrupts the in situ interactions of Hsp70i with DENV E protein and DC-SIGN at 4 h post-infection, indicating inhibition of Hsp70i association with the DENV receptor complex[2].

-
Concentration:25, 50 μM
-
Incubation Time:48, 72 h
-
Result:Inhibited proliferation of BT474, MCF-7 and SkBr3 breast cancer cells.
Non-tumorigenic MCF10A and RWPE1 cells were relatively insensitive under the same experimental context.
-
Cell Line:BT474, HeLa, HepG2, T47D, LNCaP
-
Concentration:1, 10, 25, 50, 100 μM
-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Elevated caspase 3/7 activity in a dose-dependent manner in all tested tumor cell lines.
-
Cell Line:BT474, MCF-7
-
Concentration:10, 50 μM
-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Single drug treatment promoted the degradation of Hsp70 client proteins HER2 and Akt in BT474 and MCF-7 cells.
Combined HS-10 drug administration exerted stronger degradation effects on HER2 and Akt than single-drug monotherapy.
-
Cell Line:U937+DC-SIGN
-
Concentration:50, 70, 80, 90, 100 nmol/mL
-
Incubation Time:1 h pretreatment; 24 h post-infection
-
Result:Reduced the percentage of DENV-infected cells in a dose-dependent manner.
DENV infection resulted in 56% infected cells in the control group, while HS-72 reduced infection to 34%, 15%, 9%, 6% and 4% at 50, 70, 80, 90 and 100 nmol/mL, respectively.
Cell viability was maintained at concentrations below 90 nmol/mL.
-
Cell Line:U937+DC-SIGN
-
Concentration:75 nmol/mL
-
Incubation Time:1 h pretreatment; 1 h attachment at 4°C; 1 h entry at 37°C
-
Result:Inhibited DENV infection at the entry stage.
Significantly reduced viral RNA during the entry stage according to qPCR analysis, while the time-of-addition assay showed that HS-72 was effective when added before infection, at infection, or 1 h post-infection.
