Description:

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

Galiellalactone is a natural STAT3 inhibitor. It has been shown to inhibit IL-6-dependent JAK/STAT signaling and induce cell-cycle arrest in G2/M phase and apoptosis in androgen-insensitive prostate cancer cells via activation of ATM/ATR pathway.

Product Data
Biological target:
Galiellalactone is a selective inhibitor of STAT3 signaling, with an IC50 of 250-500 nM.
In vitro activity:
Galiellalactone significantly reduced the levels of secreted IL8 from DU145 and LNCaP‐IL6 cells and decreased the IL8 mRNA levels in DU145 cells (Figure 3C). Reference: Prostate. 2019 Oct 1; 79(14): 1611–1621. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6771992/
In vivo activity:
Consistent with our in vitro data (Fig. 2A), treatment with GPA500 reduced tumor growth compared to control (Fig. 4A). Consequently, the serum PSA in the treated mice was also lower (Fig. 4B). Reference: Sci Rep. 2018; 8: 17307. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6251893/
