More Info
In HCC cells with loss of response to TGF-.beta., NSC 74859, a STAT3-specific inhibitor, markedly suppresses growth. In contrast, CD133+ status did not affect the response to STAT3 inhibition: both CD133+ Huh-7 cells and CD133- Huh-7 cells are equally sensitive to NSC 74859 treatment and STAT3 inhibition, with an IC50 of 100 .mu.M. Thus, the TGF-.beta./beta2 spectrin (.beta.2SP) pathway may reflect a more functional 'stem/progenitor' state than CD133. Furthermore, NSC 74859 treatment of Huh-7 xenografts in nude mice significantly retarded tumor growth, with an ED of only 5 mg/kg. Moreover, NSC 74859 inhibited tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT3 in HCC cells in vivo. The authors conclude that inhibiting interleukin 6 (IL6)/STAT3 in HCCs with inactivation of the TGF-.beta./.beta.2SP pathway is an effective approach in management of HCCs. Thus, IL6/STAT3, a major signaling pathway in HCC stem cell renewal and proliferation, can provide a novel approach to the treatment of specific HCCs.  see: Oncogene (2009), 28(7), 961-972.   Current developer :  H.

Biological target:
S3I-201 is a Stat3 inhibitor with an IC50 of 86 μM.
In vitro activity:
S3I-201 has the potential to mitigate fibrosis in a cellular context, making it relevant for studying conditions like lupus nephritis. S3I-201 was used in cell culture experiments to suppress the activation of STAT3, which had therapeutic effects by attenuating fibrotic changes in cultured HK-2 cells. Specifically, it reduced the expression of fibrosis-related proteins while improving the expression of E-cadherin.

In vivo activity:
This study investigated the role of S3I-201 in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a model of MS. The severity of clinical scores decreased in S3I-201-treated EAE mice compared to vehicle-treated EAE mice. S3I-201 may have novel therapeutic potential against MS.
