Gal-dMor-Gem
Gal-dMor-Gem is a selective senescent cell scavenger, Apoptosis inducer, and a prodrug of Gemcitabine (HY-17026). Gal-dMor-Gem releases Gemcitabine upon activation by Esterases and β-gal. Gal-dMor-Gem reduces SA-β-gal, preferentially induces apoptosis in senescent cells, regulates apoptosis-related proteins, accumulates in senescent tissues, and ameliorates senescence-related organ phenotypes. Gal-dMor-Gem is applicable to research on chemotherapy-induced senescence.

Biological Activity
Gal-dMor-Gem (0.1-100 μM; 48 h) potently and selectively reduces the viability of senescent A549/Dox and A549/H2O2 cells, with better efficacy than that on non-senescent A549 cells; its senolytic indices are 48.3 and 56.7, with IC50 values of 1.58 μM and 1.40 μM, respectively[1].
Gal-dMor-Gem (esterase 100 U/mL, β-galactosidase 5 U/mL) releases active gemcitabine (Gem) at a faster rate than Gal-Gem and Gal-Mor-Gem upon activation by esterase and β-gal, with a release rate of 79.9% after 3 h and a cumulative release rate of 92.4% after 12 h[1].
Gal-dMor-Gem (3-48 h) eliminates senescent A549/Dox cells faster and more effectively than Gal-Gem, reducing cell viability to 20.9% after 36 h of treatment[1].
Gal-dMor-Gem (100 μM; 36 h) selectively induces apoptosis in senescent A549/Dox cells, but shows no such selectivity toward non-senescent A549 cells[1].

Cell Line:nonsenescent A549 cells, senescent A549/Dox cells, senescent A549/H2O2 cells
-
Concentration:0.1-100 μM
-
Incubation Time:48 h
-
Result:Showed selective cytotoxicity toward senescent cells over nonsenescent cells.
Reduced cell viability to 91.7% for A549, 83.0% for A549/Dox, and 80.6% for A549/H2O2 at 0.1 μM.
Reduced cell viability to 57.1% for A549, 17.8% for A549/Dox, and 11.3% for A549/H2O2 at 100 μM.
Achieved IC50 values of 79.54 μM for A549, 1.58 μM for A549/Dox, and 1.40 μM for A549/H2O2.
Resulted in senolytic indices of 48.3 (A549/Dox) and 56.7 (A549/H2O2).

Incubation Time:36 h
-
Result:Induced apoptosis in 10.1% of nonsenescent A549 cells and 50.4% of senescent A549/Dox cells.
Induced lower apoptosis in nonsenescent A549 cells and higher apoptosis in senescent A549/Dox cells compared to Gal-Gem, which induced apoptosis in 21.5% of nonsenescent A549 cells and 32.0% of senescent A549/Dox cells.

Result:Increased body weight in treated senescent mice relative to untreated controls; achieved 14.6% body weight increase at 0.5 mg/kg and 17.8% body weight increase at 1.0 mg/kg relative to day 10.
Improved liver (ALT, AST) and kidney (CREA, UREA) function markers across all doses, with greater restorative effects than the reference compound at 0.5 mg/kg.
Reduced lung SA-β-gal-positive cells from 62.4% to 44.2% at 0.2 mg/kg, to 16.9% at 0.5 mg/kg, and to 9.9% at 1.0 mg/kg (approaching healthy levels of 6.0%).
Increased lung LMNB1-positive nuclei from 43.9% to 57.6% at 0.2 mg/kg, to 74.9% at 0.5 mg/kg, and to 82.0% at 1.0 mg/kg (approaching healthy levels of 86.0%).
Reduced lung relative IL-6 fluorescence intensity from 1450.5 to 1205.0 at 0.2 mg/kg, to 678.1 at 0.5 mg/kg, and to 450.0 at 1.0 mg/kg.
Reduced liver SA-β-gal-positive cells from 88.1% to 63.7% at 0.2 mg/kg, to 21.7% at 0.5 mg/kg, and to 13.2% at 1.0 mg/kg (approaching healthy levels of 6.9%).
Reduced liver relative p21 expression from 0.93 to 0.78 at 0.2 mg/kg, to 0.58 at 0.5 mg/kg, and to 0.50 at 1.0 mg/kg.
Reduced liver relative p53 expression to 0.49 at 0.5 mg/kg and to 0.43 at 1.0 mg/kg (approaching healthy levels of 0.38).
Reduced SA-β-gal-positive cells, increased LMNB1-positive nuclei, and reduced IL-6 levels in heart and kidney across all doses, with greater effects than the reference compound at 0.5 mg/kg; restored these markers to near healthy levels at 1.0 mg/kg.
