Biological target:
SMBA1 is a potent Bax agonist with a Ki value of 43.3 nM. SMBA1 enhances the Bax expression and shows anti-tumor activity.
In vitro activity:
Bax, a key regulator of cell death, plays a crucial role in apoptosis and developing Bax agonists is a promising treatment for treating Bax-expressing cancers, including lung cancer. SMBA1, SMBA2, and SMBA3 induced changes in Bax, promoting its insertion into mitochondrial membranes and triggering apoptosis in lung cancer cells. SMBA1, in particular, effectively inhibited lung tumor growth without harming normal tissues. Reference: Nat Commun. 2014 Sep 17;5:4935. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25230299/
In vivo activity:
SMBA1 shows anti-proliferative effects against malignant glioma cells through activation of the intrinsic apoptosis pathway. SMBA1 inhibited the growth of U87MG xenograft tumours in vivo. Reference: Pharmacology. 2020;105(3-4):164-172. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31865327/
