Description

Kongensin A is a natural product isolated from Croton kongensis. Kongensin A is an effective, covalent HSP90 inhibitor that blocks RIP3-dependent necroptosishas. Kongensin A is a potent necroptosis inhibitor and an apoptosis inducer. Kongensin A has potential anti-necroptosis and anti-inflammation applications[1].

IC50 & Target

HSP90[1]
RIP3[1]
Apoptosis[1]

In Vitro

Kongensin A (0-15 μM; 6 hours; HT29 cells) treatment induces caspase activation and apoptosis in multiple cancer cell lines in a dosage-dependent manner[1].
Kongensin A (0-15 μM; 24 hours; HT29 cells) treatment induces the degradation of RIPK1 and oncogenic kinases such as ERBB2, AKT, EGFR, and B-raf, and induces the up-regulation of HSP90A and HSP90B[1].
Kongensin A covalently binds to cysteine 420 in the middle domain of HSP90 and dissociates HSP90 from its cochaperone CDC37. The HSP90-CDC37 complex is required for RIP3 activation, KA blocks LPS/Smac mimetics/Z-VAD and RIP3 polymerization-induced cell death, in which cell death is dependent on RIP3 but not its upstream kinase RIP1[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

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.
