Product Data
Biological target:
Lexacalcitol (KH1060), a vitamin D analog, is a potent regulator of cell growth and immune responses.
In vitro activity:
KH1060 was more effective than 1,25 D(3) in inhibiting cell growth and DNA synthesis. The IC-(50) (inhibition of 50% cell viability) indicated that KH1060 was about 10-20-fold more potent than 1,25 D(3). Moreover, KH1060 exerted potent antineoplastic activity by suppressing the clonal proliferation of the six NB cells. Reference: Cancer Lett. 2003 Feb 10;190(1):51-60. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12536077/
In vivo activity:
KH 1060, the most potent analogue, inhibited interleukin-1-induced mouse thymocyte proliferation by 50% at 3 x 10(-16) M and allogeneic stimulation of mouse spleen lymphocytes at 5 x 10(15) M. Reference: Biochem Pharmacol. 1991 Sep 27;42(8):1569-75. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1656990/
