MA242
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
MA242 is a specific dual inhibitor of MDM2 and NFAT1. MA242 directly binds both MDM2 and NFAT1 with high affinity, induces their protein degradation, and inhibits NFAT1-mediated transcription of MDM2. MA242 induces apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cell lines regardless of p53 status.

Biological Activity
MDM2, NFAT1[1]
MA242 (0.05-5 μM; 72 hours) significantly inhibits pancreatic cancer cell growth, with IC50s ranging from 0.1 to 0.4 μM, regardless of the p53 status of the cells. However, MA242 shows minimal effects on the growth of normal HPDE cells (IC50=5.81 μM), indicating that MA242 has selective effects against cancer cells[1].
MA242 (0.1-0.5 μM; 24 hours) significantly decreases the MDM2 and NFAT1 protein levels at a low concentration in all three cell lines[1].
MA242 decreases cell proliferation and induces apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cell lines regardless of p53 status[1].
MA242 alone or in combination with Gemcitabine inhibits pancreatic tumor growth and metastasis without any host toxicity[1].
MA242 exerts cytotoxicity against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells by inhibiting the NFAT1-MDM2 pathway in vitro, independent of p53. MA242 shows selective cytotoxicity against HCC cells, with IC50 values ranging from 0.1-0.31 μM[2].

Concentration:0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.5 μM
-
Incubation Time:24 hours
-
Result:Decreased the expression of MDM2 and NFAT1.
There were no significant differences in the average body weights between the vehicle- and MA242-treated mice in either of the models, did not have significant host toxicity at these effective doses[1].

Animal Model:Female 4-6-week-old athymic nude mice (nu/nu, 4-6 weeks) bearing AsPC-1-Luc or Panc-1-Luc tumor[1]
-
Dosage:2.5 or 5 mg/kg for Panc-1 tumor-bearing mice; 10 mg/kg for AsPC-1 tumor-bearing mice
-
Administration:IP; 2.5 or 5 mg/kg/d, 5 d/wk for five weeks for Panc-1 tumor-bearing mice;
IP; 10 mg/kg/d, 5 d/wk for three weeks for AsPC-1 tumor-bearing mice -
Result:Resulted in 56.1% and 82.5% inhibition of tumor growth in nude mice bearing Panc-1 orthotopic tumors, respectively.
Significantly suppressed the growth of AsPC-1 orthotopic tumors by 89.5% (P < 0.01) compared with the tumors in control animals.
Led to almost complete tumor regression in MD242-treated mice in both models.

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- 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.
