In Vitro

ME-344 (24 h) induces apoptosis in sensitive H460 and SHP-77 human lung cancer cells via activation of Caspase 3 and subsequent cleavage of PARP[1].
ME-344 (10-10000 nM; 72 h) is cytotoxic to NB4, U937, K562, OCI-AML2, KG1a, HL-60, and TEX leukemia cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 70 to 260 nM after 72 h of treatment[2].
ME-344 (10 μM) potently inhibits tubulin polymerization in a cell-free biochemical assay[2].
ME-344 (8 h) suppresses the de novo purine biosynthesis pathway in MV4-11 AML cells after 8 h of treatment, significantly reducing levels of AICAR and IMP[4].

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: H460, SHP-77
Concentration: IC50 concentrations
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Induced marked cleavage of caspase 8, caspase 9, caspase 3, and PARP in H460 and SHP-77 cells. Showed higher levels of cleaved caspase 8 in H460 cells compared to SHP-77 cells. Showed higher levels of cleaved caspase 9 in SHP-77 cells compared to H460 cells.
In Vivo

ME-344 (50-100 mg/kg; i.p.; every other day; 11 days) produces dose-dependent anti-tumor efficacy in a leukemia xenograft mouse model[2].

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

Animal Model: SCID mice (male)[2]
Dosage: 50 mg/kg; 75 mg/kg; 100 mg/kg
Administration: i.p.; every other day; 11 days
Result: Significantly reduced tumor growth relative to vehicle control at all tested doses. Produced a significant decrease in tumor weight at 100 mg/kg relative to 50 mg/kg. Showed no evidence of toxicity, as measured by stable body weight, unaltered behavior, and normal gross and histologic appearance of organs at necropsy.

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.
