Product Data
Biological target:
MT 63-78 is a specific and potent direct AMPK activator with an EC50 of 25 μM.
In vitro activity:
A small molecule screening was performed and identified MT 63-78, a specific and potent direct AMPK activator. Here, this study shows that direct activation of AMPK inhibits PCa cell growth in androgen sensitive and castration resistant PCa (CRPC) models, induces mitotic arrest, and apoptosis. Reference: EMBO Mol Med. 2014 Apr;6(4):519-38. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24497570/
In vivo activity:
In vivo, AMPK activation is sufficient to reduce PCa growth in mice, whereas the allelic loss of its catalytic subunits fosters PCa development. Importantly, despite mTORC1 blockade, the suppression of de novo lipogenesis is the underpinning mechanism responsible for AMPK-mediated PCa growth inhibition, suggesting AMPK as a therapeutic target especially for lipogenesis-driven PCas.
