MitoBloCK-6
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
MitoBloCK-6 is a potent Erv1/ALR inhibitor, with an IC50 of 900 nM and 700 nM, respectively. MitoBloCK-6 also inhibits Erv2 (IC50=1.4 μM). MitoBloCK-6 can induce Apoptosis via cytochrome c release. MitoBloCK-6 inhibits growth of developing zebrafish motor neurons. MitoBloCK-6 has anticancer activity against liver cancer and leukemia.

Biological Activity
IC50: 900 nM (Erv1) 700 nM (ALR) 1.4 μM (Erv2)[1]
MitoBloCK-6 (20 μM, 8 h) induces apoptosis via cytochrome c release in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs)[1]. MitoBloCK-6 (20-40 μM, 72 h) inhibits proliferation of liver cancer cells McA-RH7777 via mitochondrial impairment[2]. MitoBloCK-6 kills leukemia cell lines (OCI-AML2, TEX, Jurkat and NB4) with an IC50 of 5-10 µM[3]. MitoBloCK-6 (0.078-5 μM) increases the differentiation of OCI-AML2 and NB4 cells via inhibition of ALR, as increased surface expression of the myeloid markers CD11b[4]. MitoBloCK-6 results in a significant decrease in the growth and branching of developing zebrafish motor neurons via inhibition of ALR[5].

Result:Resulted in a shift in cytochrome c localization from mitochondria into the cytosol.
Showed similar number of cells releasing cytochrome c.
Showed downstream events in apoptosis (PARP and caspase-3 cleavage).
MitoBloCK-6 (80 mg/kg i.p. 5 of 7 days, 2 weeks) strongly reduces the engraftment of primary AML cells in mice[6].
