Description:

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

NBDHEX is a potent glutathione S-transferase P1-1 (GSTP1-1) inhibitor. It induces apoptosis of tumor cells. NBDHEX acts as an anticancer agent by inhibiting GSTs catalytic activity, avoiding inconvenience of the inhibitor extrusion from the cell by specific pumps and disrupting the interaction between the GSTP1-1 and key signaling effectors.

Product Data
Biological target:
NBDHEX is a potent glutathione S-transferase P1-1 (GSTP1-1) inhibitor.
In vitro activity:
Interestingly, NBDHEX triggers two different types of cell death: a caspase-dependent apoptosis in the H69AR cells and a necrotic phenotype in the parental H69 cells. The apoptotic pathway triggered by NBDHEX in H69AR cells is associated with c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase and c-Jun activation, whereas glutathione oxidation and activation of p38(MAPK) is observed in the NBDHEX-treated H69 cells. Reference: Mol Cancer Ther. 2008 Feb;7(2):371-9. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18281520/
In vivo activity:
The in vivo antitumour efficacy of NBDHEX was evaluated on human melanoma (Me501 and A375) mouse models. After 15 d of daily treatment, a statistically significant tumour inhibition (approximately 70%) was observed (Fig. 7, panel A). Tumours treated with NBDHEX showed a more than 50% decrease in the mitotic in-dex (Fig. 7, panel C). Reference: Eur J Cancer. 2009 Sep;45(14):2606-17. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19665369/
