ME-344
Based on 1 Customer Validation
ME-344 is an Isoflavone. ME-344 increases mitochondrial ROS generation. ME-344 inhibits tubulin polymerization. ME-344 inhibits HO-1 and impacts its mitochondrial translocation. ME-344 induces Apoptosis through Caspase 3 activation. ME-344 synergizes with Vinblastine in leukemia cells. ME-344 displays anti-tumor activity against leukemia and lung tumor. ME-344 can be used in the research of lung cancer, acute myeloid leukemia, and HER2-negative breast cancer.

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].

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.

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.
