Nrf2

In Vitro CDDO-Im is highly active in suppressing cellular proliferation of human leukemia and breast cancer cell lines (IC50 approximately 10-30 nM). In U937 leukemia cells, CDDO-Im also induces monocytic differentiation as measured by increased cell surface expression of CD11b and CD36[1]. Treatment with CDDO-Im elevates protein levels of Nrf2, a transcription factor previously shown to bind ARE sequences, and increases expression of a number of antioxidant and detoxification genes regulated by Nrf2[2]. CDDO-Im is one of the most potent synthetic triterpenoids shown to induce growth inhibition and apoptosis in various human cancer cells, including multiple myeloma, lung, pancreas and breast cancer. CDDO-Im treatment markedly induces cell cycle arrest at G2/M-phase and apoptosis in the triple-negative breast cancer cell lines, SUM159 and MDA-MB-231. The CD24−/EpCAM+ cells in SUM159 tumorspheres are significantly inhibited by CDDO-Im treatment. CDDO-Im also significantly decreases sphere forming efficiency and tumorsphere size in both primary and secondary sphere cultures[3].
In Vivo CDDO-Im is a potent inhibitor of de novo inducible nitric oxide synthase expression in primary mouse macrophages. Moreover, CDDO-Im inhibits growth of B16 murine melanoma and L1210 murine leukemia cells in vivo. Injection of 10 nM (5.4 μg) of CDDO-Im almost completely blocks the ability of IFN-γ to induce iNOS, and treatment with as little as 1 nmol of CDDO-Im (0.54 μg) is partially effective[1].
Cell Assay CDDO-Im is dissolved in DMSO. SUM159 and MDA-MB-231 cells are seeded into each well of 96-well plates (1,000 cell/well) and treated the next day with vehicle control or CDDO-Im (1, 10, 50, 100 and 200 nM) for given incubation time. The absorbance is measured with a spectrophotometer to determine cell proliferation rate[3].
Animal Admin Mice: Mice are injected i.p. with thioglycollate, and the resulting resident peritoneal macrophages are activated 3 days later with an i.p. injection of IFN-γ. CDDO and CDDO-Im are injected i.p. 30 min after IFN-γ. Macrophages are harvested 10 h later, cultured for 12 h, and then assayed for expression of iNOS protein and production of nitric oxide (NO)[1].
