In Vitro

ITF 3756 (6 h) downregulates the expression of TNF-α-induced activation and differentiation markers by regulating the expression of specific genes, and induces a phenotype with weaker immunosuppressive properties in purified human monocytes[1].
ITF3756 (0.06-1.5 μM; 4-20 h) downregulates PD-L1 expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner, attenuates the immunosuppressive phenotype of primary human monocytes stimulated with TNF-α, and promotes the costimulatory phenotype by upregulating CD40 expression, with no cytotoxicity observed at the tested concentrations[2].
ITF3756 (1 μM; 3-6 h) upregulates CD40 gene expression and downregulates PD-L1 gene expression in TNF-α-stimulated primary human monocytes, with a significant effect on PD-L1 observed at 4 hours post-stimulation[2].
ITF3756 (1 μM; overnight) downregulates PD-L1 expression on TNF-α-stimulated primary human monocytes derived from patients with colorectal cancer and breast cancer, which is consistent with the effect observed in monocytes from healthy donors[2]
ITF3756 (1 μM; 6 h) inhibits the TNF-α, NF-κB and NOD-like receptor signaling pathways, downregulates the expression of inhibitory immune checkpoint genes and M2 macrophage markers, and upregulates metabolic pathways in primary human monocytes stimulated with TNF-α, thereby inducing their transition to a phenotype with weaker immunosuppression and stronger metabolic activity[2].
ITF3756 (1 μM; 19 h) downregulates the expression of proteins related to antigen presentation, inflammatory signaling pathways and cell death in primary human monocytes stimulated by TNF-α, while upregulating the expression of proteins related to metabolic pathways. This is consistent with the results of transcriptomic studies showing that these cells exhibit a phenotype with lower immunosuppression and higher metabolic activity[2].
ITF3756 (1 μM; 2.15 h) inhibits TNF-α-induced activation of the NF-κB pathway in primary human monocytes by reducing the phosphorylation level of p65 at the Ser536 site[2].
ITF3756 (1 μM; 6 d) enhances the capacity of TNF-α-stimulated primary human monocytes to activate allogeneic T cells; this effect is reflected by increased T cell proliferation levels in MLR assays and produces a synergistic effect when combined with anti-PD-L1 antibodies[2].
ITF3756 (0.5-1 μM; 5 d) enhances the antigen-presenting cell phenotype of monocyte-derived iDCs and mDCs by upregulating CD86 expression while slightly downregulating PD-L1 expression[2].
ITF3756 (1 μM; 10 d) enhances the ability of monocyte-derived iDCs to activate allogeneic T cells, which is confirmed by the increased T cell proliferation observed in mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) assays[2].
ITF3756 (1-10 μM; 48 h) reduces the viability of HCT116 colon cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner. After 48 h of treatment, cell viability decreases by approximately 50% at 5 μM, and is almost completely lost at 10 μM[3].
ITF3756 (1-10 μM; 48 h) reduces the viability of HT29 colon cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner. After 48 h of treatment, cell viability decreases by approximately 25% at 5 μM and by approximately 50% at 10 μM[3].
ITF3756 (2-7 μM; 48 h) promotes lipid accumulation in HCT116 colon cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner within 48 h, with a significant increase in lipid droplet formation observed at 7 μM[3].
ITF3756 (2-7 μM; 48 h) dose-dependently increases lipid accumulation in HT29 colon cancer cells, with an action duration exceeding 48 h, and the accumulation levels are significantly elevated at concentrations of 5 μM and 7 μM[3].
ITF3756 (2 μM; 48 h) selectively inhibits HDAC6 activity in HCT116 colon cancer cells for a duration exceeding 48 h, which is evidenced by increased levels of α-acetylated tubulin[3].
Treatment with ITF3756 (2 μM; 48 h) alone exerts mild, subtoxic cytostatic effects on HCT116 colon cancer cells within 48 h[3].
ITF3756 (2 μM; 48 h) alone exerts mild subtoxic effects on the viability of HT29 colon cancer cells within 48 h[3].
ITF3756 (2 μM; 24-48 h) alone slightly increases p53 levels in HCT116 colon cancer cells within 24-48 h, but does not activate apoptotic markers[3].
Treatment with ITF3756 (2 μM; 24 h) alone induces mild lipogenic activity in HCT116 colon cancer cells within 24 h, which is evidenced by a moderate increase in the levels of cleaved SREBP-1 and PPAR-γ[3].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
