Product Data
Biological target:
MKT-077 is a rhodacyanine dye and also a heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) inhibitor.
In vitro activity:
MKT-077 binds to an hsp70 family member, mortalin (mot-2), and abrogates its interactions with the tumor suppressor protein, p53. In cancer cells, but not in normal cells, MKT-077 induced release of wild-type p53 from cytoplasmically sequestered p53-mot-2 complexes and rescued its transcriptional activation function. Thus, MKT-077 may be particularly useful for therapy of cancers with wild-type p53. Reference: Cancer Res. 2000 Dec 15;60(24):6818-21. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11156371/
In vivo activity:
This study determined whether MKT-077 could suppress TT xenografts in immune-compromised nude mice. Systemic administration of MKT-077 significantly delayed the growth of TT xenografts in mice throughout the treatment (Fig. 5A). At the end of the drug treatment, this study found that tumor weights were about two-times less in MKT-077-treated group than in control group (Fig. 5B).
