Icapamespib
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Icapamespib (PU-HZ151; PU-AD) is a selective, orally active inhibitor of Epichaperomes assembled by HSP90 with slow dissociation kinetics. Icapamespib can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) ??and induce epichaperome disassembly by non-covalently binding to HSP90, restoring the normal protein-protein interaction network. Icapamespib can specifically disrupt disease-related abnormal protein interaction networks, reduce neurotoxic protein aggregation and tumor cell survival signals. Icapamespib can be used in the research of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, as well as cancers such as glioblastoma and metastatic breast cancer.

Biological Activity
|
HSP90 |
Icapamespib has an EC50 of 5 nM for epichaperomes in MDA-MB-468 cell homogenates, with a higher binding affinity than PU-H71 (EC50 of 11 nM)[1].
Icapamespib (0.1-1 μM; 24 h) significantly reduces MDA-MB-468 cell viability and reduces high molecular weight HSP90 complexes by disrupting epichaperome structure, while inducing decreased p-ERK phosphorylation levels and c-PARP cleavage[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Result:Reduced the formation of high-molecular-weight HSP90 complexes in native-PAGE analysis, while total HSP90 levels remain unchanged in SDS-PAGE, indicating specific disruption of epichaperomes without altering total chaperone expression.
Icapamespib can target Alzheimer's disease and pedicled blastoma[2].
124I-labeled PU-AD (Icapamespib) derivatives have been used to detect and quantify Epichaperomes in vivo by PET imaging[2].

Animal Model:Female BALB/c nude mice (6-8 weeks old, 18-20 g) bearing U87MG glioblastoma xenografts[1]
-
Dosage:10 mg/kg
-
Administration:Intravenous injection via tail vein, twice weekly for 3 weeks.
-
Result:Significantly reduced tumor volume by 65% compared to vehicle controls.
Decreased levels of HSP90 client proteins (EGFR, AKT) and increased HSP70 expression.
No significant body weight loss or organ toxicity was observed.
