Biological Activity

Description Gemcitabine HCl is a DNA synthesis inhibitor with IC50 of 50 nM, 40 nM, 18 nM and 12 nM in PANC1, MIAPaCa2, BxPC3 and Capan2 cells, respectively.
Features Gemcitabine has been used to treat pancreatic cancer and has demonstrated effective anti-tumor activity.
Targets
DNA synthesis (Capan2 cells) [1] DNA synthesis (BxPC3 cells) [1] DNA synthesis (MIAPaCa2 cells) [1] DNA synthesis (PANC1 cells) [1]
12 nM 18 nM 40 nM 50 nM
In vitro

Gemcitabine induced NF-κB activity in BxPC-3, PANC-1, and MIA PaCa-2 cells and decreased the level of the NF-κB inhibitor IκBα in BxPC-3 and PANC-1 cells. Treatment of BxPC-3 cells with low dose Gemcitabine for 48 hours results in a dose-dependent increase in NF-κB binding. In contrast, NF-κB DNA binding is decreased in BxPC-3 cells treated with the higher Gemcitabine doses for 48 h; however, 24-h treatment with these higher doses increases NF-κB binding in BxPC-3 cells [2]

p70S6K1 / p-S6 / HIF-1α; 

PubMed: 27765914     


Cells were treated with different doses of gemcitabine (0, 1.5 and 2.5 μM), the expression levels of p70S6K1, p-S6 and HIF-1α were determined by Western blotting. GAPDH is used as an internal control. 

LC3-I / LC3-II; 

PubMed: 27384485     


A, E. The levels of LC3-I and LC3-II detected by Western blotting were quantified by densitometry using Image J software. The ratio of LC3-II to LC3-I was evaluated after treated with gemcitabine (MCF-7: 4 μg/ml; MDA-MB-231: 1 μg/ml) for 0 h (control), 12, 24 and 48 h. B, F. The ratio of LC3-II to actin was assayed after treated with gemcitabine, chloroquine (CQ) (MCF-7: 2.5 μM; MDA-MB-231: 5 μM), and gemcitabine plus CQ (added before gemcitabine treatment for 1 h) for indicated time (MCF-7: 48 h; MDA-MB-231: 24 h).

pS-ERα / ERα / pERK / ERK; 

PubMed: 27384485     


MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells were treated by gemcitabine with different concentrations (MCF-7: 0, 2, 4, 8 μg/ml; MDA-MB-231: 0, 0.5, 1, 2 μg/ml), and the phosphorylation of ERα (ser167), ERK (Thr202/Tyr204) and expression of LC3-I and LC3-II were detected.

caspase-3 / caspase-8 / caspase-9; 

PubMed: 16307741     


H1299 and H1299/GR cells were treated with 100 nM gemcitabine for the indicated time periods, and proteins in whole-cell lysates were analyzed by immunoblotting with anti-caspase-3, caspase-8, and caspase-9 antibodies. The arrowheads represent cleavage proteins. β-actin was used as a loading control.

p-JNK / JNK / p-ATF2 / p-c-Jun; 

PubMed: 16307741     


Time-dependent activation of the JNK signaling pathway by gemcitabine treatment. H1299 and H1299/GR cells were treated with 100 nM gemcitabine for the indicated time periods. Cell lysates were then subjected to western blotting using total JNK and phospho-specific antibodies to JNK, c-Jun, and ATF2. Maximal phosphorylation of those molecules is observed in H1299 cells treated with gemcitabine for 48 h.

A and B. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells Bxpc-3 (A) and Panc-1 (B) were treated with gemcitabine (GEM) for 48 h at different doses. The cell viability was analyzed by CCK-8 assay, and normalized to cells without gemcitabine treatment.

27765914
In vivo Intratumoral NF-κB activity is significantly elevated (1.3- to 1.8-fold) in the Gemcitabine-treated mice compared to the PBS-treated mice, suggesting that Gemcitabine also induces NF-κB activation. [2]
