In Vitro The IC50s of MN58b for parental and Gemcitabine-resistant Suit2 007 cells are 3.14 µM and 0.77 µM, respectively[1]. MN58b (1-5 µM; 72 hours; SK-PC-1, Suit2 008, IMIM-PC2, and RWP-1 cells) has a marked effect on colony formation at 1 µM, and growth is completely abolished at 5 µM in all the cell lines[1]. MN58b ((1-10 µM; 24-48 hours; SK-PC-1, Suit2 008, IMIM-PC2, and RWP-1 cells) induces apoptosis and this response correlates with CHKα expression[1]. Cell Viability Assay[1] Cell Line: SK-PC-1, Suit2 008, IMIM-PC2, and RWP-1 cells Concentration: 1 µM, 5 µM Incubation Time: 72 hours Result: Inhibited cells growth. Apoptosis Analysis[1] Cell Line: SK-PC-1, Suit2 008, IMIM-PC2, and RWP-1 cells Concentration: 1 µM, 2 µM, 5 µM, 10 µM Incubation Time: 24 and 48 hours Result: Induced cell apoptosis.
In Vivo MN58b (4 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; once a day; for 5 days; MF-1 nude mice) treatment significantly decreases phosphomonoesters in both HT29 and MDA-MB-231 xenografts. Phosphocholine levels are found to correlate with choline kinase activities[2]. Animal Model: MF-1 nude mice with HT29 or MDA-MB-231 cells[2] Dosage: 4 mg/kg Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; once a day; for 5 days Result: Phosphomonoesters decreased significantly.
