WQQ-345 is an orally active BCAT1 inhibitor with an IC50 values of 10.8 mM. WQQ-345 reduces cellular α-KG levels, upregulating H3K27me3 expression, decreasing glycolytic enzyme expression, and impairing glycolysis activity. WQQ-345 reduces colony formation, suppresses growth of BCAT1-high TKI-resistant lung cancer cells. WQQ-345 exerts in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity. WQQ-345 can be used for the research of TKI-resistant non-small cell lung cancer and TKI-resistant lung cancer.

Description

WQQ-345 is an orally active BCAT1 inhibitor with an IC50 values of 10.8 mM. WQQ-345 reduces cellular α-KG levels, upregulating H3K27me3 expression, decreasing glycolytic enzyme expression, and impairing glycolysis activity. WQQ-345 reduces colony formation, suppresses growth of BCAT1-high TKI-resistant lung cancer cells. WQQ-345 exerts in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity. WQQ-345 can be used for the research of TKI-resistant non-small cell lung cancer and TKI-resistant lung cancer[1][2].

In Vitro

WQQ-345 (2.5-5 mM; 7-10 days) dose-dependently inhibits colony formation of 67R NSCLC cells[1].
WQQ-345 (5-10 mM; 3 days) dose-dependently reduces intracellular α-KG levels, upregulates H3K27me3 protein expression, and downregulates PFKP and LDHA protein expression in 67R NSCLC cells after 3 days of treatment at 5 mM or 10 mM[1].
WQQ-345 (5 mM; 3 days) impairs glycolytic activity (lowered ECAR) in 67R NSCLC cells[1].

Cell Proliferation Assay[1]

Cell Line: ASK120067-resistant NCI-H1975 (67R) NSCLC cells
Concentration: 2.5, 5 mM
Incubation Time: 7-10 days
Result: Dose-dependently reduced colony formation of 67R cells, with significant inhibition observed at both 2.5 mM and 5 mM.
Resulted in stronger growth inhibition when co-treated with 1 μM ASK120067 (HY-138751) than either monotherapy.
Lost growth-inhibitory effects in 67R cells with BCAT1 knockdown, confirming on-target activity.

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: ASK120067-resistant NCI-H1975 (67R) NSCLC cells
Concentration: 5, 10 mM
Incubation Time: 3 days
Result: Dose-dependently upregulated H3K27me3 protein expression in 67R cells.
Left BCAT1 protein expression unchanged in 67R cells.\n
Dose-dependently reduced protein levels of glycolytic enzymes PFKP and LDHA in 67R cells.
In Vivo

WQQ-345 (80-120 mg/kg; p.o.; twice daily; 43 days) exerts potent antitumor activity in mouse 67R NSCLC xenografts[1].

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

Animal Model: BALB/c nude (4-week-old) subcutaneously injected with 67R cells[1]
Dosage: 80; 120 mg/kg
Administration: p.o.; twice daily; 43 days
Result: Achieved robust tumor regression at 120 mg/kg, with significantly smaller tumor volumes compared to vehicle control by day 43.
Increased H3K27me3 protein expression significantly in tumors treated with 120 mg/kg relative to vehicle control tumors.
Decreased protein levels of glycolytic enzymes PFKP, LDHA, and PKM1/2 significantly in tumors treated with 120 mg/kg relative to vehicle control tumors.

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.
