ZnPc-PEG2-VH032 is a VHL-pathway-dependent photodegradation targeting chimera (PDTAC) and cytotoxic agent. ZnPc-PEG2-VH032 (HY-120217) binds to the VHL ligand domain, and then specifically degrades VHL under light irradiation, a process independent of non-specific ROS-mediated protein damage. ZnPc-PEG2-VH032 uses Zinc phthalocyanine (HY-19204) as a photosensitizer, and generates ROS via type I and type II photodynamic pathways under 680 nm LED irradiation. On one hand, it targets and degrades the bound VHL protein through ROS; on the other hand, it exerts direct photodynamic cytotoxicity. Meanwhile, the degradation of VHL downregulates the phosphorylation level of CDK2/4, induces cell cycle arrest in tumor cells, further enhances the sensitivity of tumor cells to oxidative damage caused by ROS, and achieves a synergistic anti-tumor effect. ZnPc-PEG2-VH032 exerts significant in vivo efficacy in an orthotopic mouse model of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).

In Vitro

ZnPc-PEG2-VH032 binds with high affinity to VHL protein, forming hydrogen bonds with specific residues and interacting with additional surrounding residues to stabilize the complex[1].

In Vivo

ZnPc-PEG2-VH032 (0.625 mg/kg; bladder instillation; days 1, 3, 5, 8, 10; followed by 680 nm LED light exposure) exhibits light-activated in vivo antitumor efficacy against orthotopic NMIBC in C57BL/6 mice, with activity comparable to the Mitomycin C (MMC) (HY-13316)[1].

Animal Model: C57BL/6 mice (female, 16-20 g weight, orthotopic non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer model via mCherry-MB-49 bladder carcinoma cell implantation with silver nitrate etching)[1]
Dosage: 0.625 mg/kg
Administration: bladder instillation; days 1, 3, 5, 8, 10; followed by 10 minutes of 680 nm LED light exposure (12 J/cm2) 2 hours post-administration
Result: Showed no antitumor activity under non-illuminated conditions (bladder mCherry fluorescence intensity similar to PBS control).
Reduced bladder mCherry fluorescence intensity to nearly absent levels under light-treated conditions, matching efficacy of positive control mitomycin C.
Achieved near-complete elimination of tumor structures in the bladder while preserving normal bladder tissue architecture.
Maintained stable mouse body weights throughout the treatment cycle.

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.
