Product Data
Biological target:
Rhosin binds to RhoA to inhibit RhoA-GEF interaction with a Kd of ~ 0.4 uM. It does not interact with Cdc42 or Rac1, nor the GEF, LARG. Rhosin induces cell apoptosis. Rhosin promotes stress resiliency through enhancing D1-MSN plasticity and reducing hyperexcitability.
In vitro activity:
Rhosin inhibited tumor cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix via suppression of RHAMM expression, and inhibited SDF-1-induced cell migration and invasion by decreasing CXCR4 expression in B16BL6 and 4T1 cells. These results suggest that rhosin’s inhibition of RhoA/C-YAP pathway has potential as a therapeutic approach in patients with melanoma and breast cancer. Reference: Biomedicines. 2021 Jan 4;9(1):35. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33406809/
In vivo activity:
When 25 μM of Y16 and 25 μM of Rhosin were combined, the inhibitory effect on LARG-RhoA interaction was statistically significant. When Y16 and Rhosin were combined, a significantly reduced concentration could effectively inhibit MYPT1 phosphorylation (2.5 μM compared with 5 μM for Y16 alone).
