STAT3 |
In Vitro | When U266 cells are incubated with Nifuroxazide, a significant dose-dependent decrease in STAT3 tyrosine phosphorylation is observed. This inhibition of STAT3 tyrosine phosphorylation is rapid, occurring as early as 1 h after treatment, and is sustained for at least 24 h. Treatment of U266 or INA6 cells with Nifuroxazide for 48 hours result in a dose-dependent loss of cell viability with an EC50 of approximately 4.5 μM in both cell types. Notably, the MM cells lacking constitutive STAT3 activation show little toxicity to Nifuroxazide[1]. |
In Vivo | Compared with the vehicle group, treatment with Nifuroxazide could inhibit tumor growth and tumor weight in a dose-dependent manner, with the inhibition rate of tumor volumes being 43.0% and 62.1% at 25 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg, respectively. It is also shown that Nifuroxazide significantly inhibits the proliferation of nuclear Ki-67-positive cells and induces apoptosis cells of cleaved caspase-3-positive cells. Besides, it is found that treatment with Nifuroxazide could inhibit the expression of MMP-2, MMP-9 and p-Stat3 in A375 tumor tissues. What’s more, Nifuroxazide inhibits the infiltration of MDSCs into the lung, which might be associated with suppression of distant colonization of tumor cells in B16-F10 melanoma metastasis model[2]. |
Animal Admin | Mice[2] Mice engrafted subcutaneously with 1×107 A375 cells are randomly divided into groups when tumor volume is around 100 mm3 and are administrated intraperitoneally injected with Nifuroxazide 25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg or vehicle once daily. The tumor size and body weight are measured every 3 days. C57Bl/6J mice are engrafted by injecting intravenously via the tail vein with 2×105 B16-F10 cells to produce experimental lung metastasis. They are randomly assigned to groups on day 6 and are intraperitoneally injected with Nifuroxazide 50 mg/kg or vehicle once daily. Black dots on lung surface are counted and confirmed as melanoma metastases[2]. |
