BTYNB Myc inhibitor

BTYNB (BTYNB IMP1 Inhibitor, MDK6620) is a potent and selective inhibitor of IMP1 binding to c-Myc mRNA. This compound downregulates β-TrCP1 mRNA and reduces activation of nuclear transcriptional factors-kappa B (NF-κB). It disrupts this enhancer function by impairing IGF2 mRNA-binding protein 1 (IGF2BP1)-RNA association.

In vitro

In cells, BTYNB downregulates several mRNA transcripts regulated by IMP1. This compound destabilizes c-Myc mRNA, resulting in downregulation of c-Myc mRNA and protein. It downregulates β-TrCP1 mRNA and reduces activation of nuclear transcriptional factors-kappa B (NF-κB). The oncogenic translation regulator, eEF2, emerges as a new IMP1 target mRNA, enabling this chemical to inhibit tumor cell protein synthesis. It potently inhibits proliferation of IMP1-containing ovarian cancer and melanoma cells with no effect in IMP1-negative cells. Overexpression of IMP1 reverses its inhibition of cell proliferation. This compound completely blocks anchorage-independent growth of melanoma and ovarian cancer cells in colony formation assays.[1]

Cell Research Cell lines SK-MEL2 cells
Concentrations 10 μM
Incubation Time 24 h
Method

For stability experiments, SK-MEL2 cells are treated with either DMSO or 10 μM BTYNB for 24 hours. mRNA synthesis is inhibited by treatment with 5 μM Actinomycin D (mRNA decay), and the cells are harvested at the indicated time points.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
