Description:

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

ML-329 is an inhibitor of the microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) pathway with an IC50 value of 1.2 μM for promoter activity of the MITF target gene TRPM-1. ML329 showed specific activity against the MITF-dependent cells, primary melanocytes but no effect on the viability in A375 cells. ML329 reduced the expression of multiple MITF target genes, including pigment-related genes and the cell cycle regulator CDK2. As a tool compound, ML329 will be useful in elucidating the role of MITF in melanocyte lineage development and in melanoma disease progression.

More Info
Micropthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) is a lineage restricted basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factor that is essential for melanocyte development, function and survival. 15% of human melanomas have MITF gene amplification. In addition, a vast majority of melanomas are dependent upon MITF for survival.
Product Data
Biological target:
ML329 is a micropthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) inhibitor, which inhibits TRPM-1 promoter activity with an IC50 of 1.2 μM.
In vitro activity:
ML329 was tested in two MITF-dependent melanoma cell viability assays, SK-MEL-5 and MALME-3M plus a MITF-independent cell line, A375. ML329 showed specific activity against the MITF-dependent cells, primary melanocytes but no effect on the viability in A375 cells. ML329 reduced the expression of multiple MITF target genes, including pigment-related genes and the cell cycle regulator CDK2.

In vivo activity:
The effect of potential probiotics derived from breast milk on development of intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) newborn rats' intestine was investigated. The proliferation and differentiation stimulating effects of ML-329 and ML-446 on IECs in the jejunum, ileum, and colon were mediated by activating the Wnt pathway with increased expression of wnt, lrp5, and β-catenin genes and accumulation of β-catenin, and by downregulating the Notch signalling pathway with decreased expression of the activated notch protein.
