Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Angustmycin A is a nucleoside-analog inhibitor of GMPS (guanosine monophosphate synthase) produced by Streptomyces hygroscopius that efficiently suppresses melanoma cell invasion in vitro and tumorigenicity in immunocompromised mice. Angustmycin A may be used as an anti-melanoma agent when considering GMPS as a driver of melanoma.

More Info
Biological target:
Decoyinine is a selective inhibitor of GMP synthetase (GMPS).
In vitro activity:
Whether GMPS inhibition via angustmycin A may inhibit melanoma cells invasion was investigated. Treatment of SK-Mel-28 and SK-Mel103 cells with 2 mM of Angustmycin A (maximum concentration not affecting proliferation of studied cells) reduced their invasion by ~30% compared with vehicle-treated cells (Figure 4a), mirroring the phenotype caused by GMPS depletion (Figure 1b). Furthermore, as observed with GMPS depletion, supplementation with 100 μM of guanosine negated the effect of angustmycin A (Figure 4a). Thus, pharmacological inhibition of GMPS phenocopies the effects of GMPS genetic inhibition on melanoma cells invasive ability and its guanosine dependence.

In vivo activity:
The anti-melanoma efficacy of angustmycin A was investigated in a preclinical mouse model. SK-Mel-103 and SK-Mel-28 cells were inoculated subcutaneously in both flanks of SCID mice (18 mice/cell line). Once tumors volume reached approximately 100 mm3, mice were randomly assigned to a group and treated with daily i.p. injections of angustmycin A (120 mg/kg) or vehicle. In SK-Mel-103 cells, angustmycin A treatment resulted in a 36% reduction of xenografts volume compared with vehicle, (Figure 4b). In SK-Mel-28 cells, the xenograft volume reduction caused by angustmycin A was of 62% (Figure 4b).
