Biological target:
KC7F2 is a potent hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) pathway inhibitor with an IC50 of 20 μM in LN229-HRE-AP cells, and with potential as a cancer therapy agent.
In vitro activity:
KC7F2 markedly inhibited HIF-mediated transcription in cells derived from different tumor types, including glioma, breast, and prostate cancers, and exhibited enhanced cytotoxicity under hypoxia. KC7F2 prevented the activation of HIF-target genes such as carbonic anhydrase IX, matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), endothelin 1, and enolase 1.
Reference: Clin Cancer Res. 2009 Oct 1;15(19):6128-36. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19789328/
In vivo activity:
KC7F2 treatment (10 mg/kg/d) in OIR (oxygen-reduced retinopathy) mice significantly attenuated pathological neovascularization and decreased the number of preretinal neovascular cell nuclei, without changing the avascular area, which showed the same trends in OIR rats. Consistently, after the KC7F2 intervention (10 µM), cell proliferation was inhibited in VEGF-induced HUVEC, which was in agreement with the trend observed in the retinas of OIR mice.
