MD-224
Based on 8 publication(s) in Google Scholar
MD-224 is a first-in-class and highly potent small-molecule human murine double minute 2 (MDM2) degrader based on the proteolysistargeting chimera (PROTAC) concept. MD-224 consists of ligands for Cereblon and MDM2. MD-224 induces rapid degradation of MDM2 at concentrations <1 nM in human leukemia cells, and achieves an IC50 value of 1.5 nM in inhibition of growth of RS4;11 cells. MD-224 has the potential to be a new class of anticancer agent. MD-224 is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.

MD-224 (1-30 nM; 2 hours) effectively induces depletion of MDM2 protein and concurrently accumulation of p53 protein in a dose-dependent manner in RS4;11 cells[1]. MD-224 (30 nM; 6 hours) is more potent than MI-1061 in induction of transcriptional upregulation of these p53 target genes but have no effect on TP53 itself in RS4;11 cells[1]. MD-224 (0.001-1 μM; 24 hours) induces robust apoptosis at ≤10 nM in a dose-dependent manner upon a 24 hours treatment[1].
