Biological Activity

Description Phenoxodiol (Haginin E, Idronoxil, Dehydroequol, NV 06, PXD) is an isoflavone analog with antineoplastic activity that activates the caspase system, inhibits XIAP (X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis), and disrupts FLICE inhibitory protein (FLIP) expression, resulting in tumor cell apoptosis. Phenoxodiol also inhibits DNA topoisomerase II.
Targets
Caspase [1] XIAP [1] FLIP [1] Topo II [2]
In vitro

Primary ovarian cancer cells, isolated from ascitic fluids of ovarian cancer patients, resistant to conventional chemotherapy, undergo apoptosis following phenoxodiol treatment. This effect is dependent upon the activation of the caspase system, inhibiting XIAP, an inhibitor of apoptosis, and disrupting FLICE inhibitory protein (FLIP) expression through the Akt signal transduction pathway. Phenoxodiol is an efficient inducer of cell death in ovarian cancer cells and sensitizes the cancer cells to Fas-mediated apoptosis.[1]

In vivo

In an in vivo colon cancer model, Balb/C mice administered low-dose Phenoxodiol (PXD), exhibits significantly reduced tumour growth rates and prolonged survival (in 40% of the animals).[4]

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:

[1]

  • Cell lines

    primary ovarian cancer cells

  • Concentrations

    0.1 μg/ml, 1 μg/ml, 10 μg/ml

  • Incubation Time

    24 h

  • Method

    Cells are treated in the presence or absence of 500 ng/ml Fas-antibody in Optimem for 24 h or with 0.1, 1 or 10 μg/ml phenoxodiol, NV03, NV05 or NV07 in Optimem for 24 h. For treatment with phenoxodiol and caspase inhibitors, 10 μg/ml phenoxodiol is used alone, or in combination with 20 μM general caspase-inhibitor Z-VADFMK and incubated for 24 h.

Animal Study:

[4]

  • Animal Models

    7–8-week-old female Balb/C mice

  • Dosages

    10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg

  • Administration
