Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

BIX 01294 trihydrochloride hydrate, a diazepin-quinazolinamine derivative, is a histone-lysine methyltransferase (HMTase) inhibitor that modulates the epigenetic status of chromatin. BIX-01294 inhibits the G9aHMTase dependent levels of histone-3 lysine (9) methylation (H3K9me). Bix-01294 and valproic acid, a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, may replace the requirement for ectopic OCT4 (POU5F1) and cMyc respectively in pluripotent stem cell induction (iPS) recipes.

Product Data
Biological target:
BIX-01294 is an inhibitor of G9a Histone Methyltransferase with an IC50 of 1.9 μM.
In vitro activity:
Here it’s demonstrated that BIX01294, an inhibitor of a G9a histone methyltransferase (introducing H3K9me2 and H3K27me3 repressive marks) triggers autophagy in human glioma cells. Pharmacological or genetic inhibition of autophagy decreased LC3-II accumulation and GFP-LC3 punctation in BIX01294-treated cells. GSCs-enriched spheres originating from glioma cells and GBM patient-derived cultures express lower levels of autophagy related (ATG) genes than the parental glioma cell cultures. Typical differentiation inducers that upregulate neuronal and astrocytic markers in sphere cultures, increase the level of ATG mRNAs. G9a binds to the promoters of autophagy (LC3B, WIPI1) and differentiation-related (GFAP, TUBB3) genes in GSCs. Higher H3K4me3 (an activation mark) and lower H3K9me2 (the repressive mark) levels at the promoters of studied genes were detected in serum-differentiated cells than in sphere cultures. BIX01294 treatment upregulates the expression of autophagy and differentiation-related genes in GSCs. Pharmacological inhibition of autophagy decreases GFAP and TUBB3 expression in BIX01294-treated GSCs suggesting that BIX01294-induced differentiation of GSCs is autophagy-dependent.

In vivo activity:
To determine if BIX01294 can suppress VEGF-induced angiogenesis in vivo, mice were injected with 200 μl of VEGF containing Matrigel with or without BIX01294. VEGF induced endothelial cells from the neighboring blood vessels to develop functional neo-vessels into the Matrigel plug. BIX01294 treatment reduced the extent of VEGF-induced microvessel formation within the Matrigel plug (Fig. 3C). These results demonstrated that BIX01294 potently blocked in vivo neovascularization.
