Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC₅₀/Ki	DDX3
In vitro	RK-33 binds specifically to DDX3, but not to the closely related proteins DDX5 and DDX17. This compound inhibits cancer growth and radiosensitizes lung cancer cells in a DDX3-dependent manner. It has no effect on either mitochondrial respiration or ATP generation. This chemical curbs proliferation and induces apoptosis in a DDX3-dependent fashion. Wnt signaling is mediated by DDX3 and inhibited by RK-33. It impairs radiation-induced DNA damage repair by inhibiting NHEJ activity.
In vivo	RK-33 in combination with radiation induces tumor regression in multiple mouse models of lung cancer. This compound, at the dose used, is non-toxic in SCID mice. This chemical-treated mice do not exhibit any discernable morphological changes.
