Rocaglamide HSP inhibitor

Cat.No.S7428

Rocaglamide (Roc-A), isolated from Aglaia species, is a potent inhibitor of heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) activation with IC50 of ~50 nM for HSF1. This compound inhibits the function of the translation initiation factor eIF4A. It also inhibits NF-κB activity. This chemical exhibits anti-tumor activity.

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.

(Cell-free assay)
50 nM
In vitro

Rocaglamide A inhibits the heat shock reporter with IC50 of ~50 nM and inhibits the function of the translation initiation factor eIF4A, a DEAD box RNA helicase.[1] This compound is able to suppress the PMA-induced expression of NF-kappaB target genes and sensitize leukemic T cells to apoptosis induced by TNFalpha and gamma-irradiation.[2]

In vivo

Rocaglamide induces apoptosis of tumor cells in SCID mice models. This compound has the potential to inhibit the growth of HCC cell-derived tumors in vivo.[3]
