Product Data
Biological target:
(Rac)-Idroxioleic acid (2-Hydroxyoleic acid) is a synthetic oleic acid (OA) derivative that binds to the plasma membrane and alters lipid organization. (Rac)-Idroxioleic acid has anti-tumor effect.
In vitro activity:
Minerval also acts, selectively in cancer cell lines, as an ATP depleting uncoupler of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos). As a function of its exposure time, Minerval compromised the capacity of glioblastoma U87-MG cells to compensate for aberrant respiration by up-modulation of glycolysis. Additionally, compared with other OxPhos inhibitors, Minerval uniquely induced ER stress in cancer cell lines. Reference: Biosci Rep. 2019 Jan 18;39(1):BSR20181661. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30602451/
In vivo activity:
Minerval treatments markedly and significantly inhibited tumour growth in nude mice infected with Jurkat cells. Tumours from control (untreated) mice increased 431 ± 24% between days 10 and 31 after tumour implantation, whereas the average increase in tumour volume of Minerval-treated animals was 24 ± 16% (three out of eight animals showing tumour reductions) (Fig. 5).
