Description: | Ansamitocin P-3 is a microtubule inhibitor. Ansamitocin P-3 is a macrocyclic antitumor antibiotic. |
Target: | Microtubule[1] |
In Vitro: | Ansamitocin P3 potently inhibits the proliferation of MCF-7, HeLa, EMT-6/AR1 and MDA-MB-231 cells in culture with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration of 20±3, 50±0.5, 140±17, and 150±1.1 pM, respectively. Further, Ansamitocin P3 is found to bind to purified tubulin in vitro with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 1.3±0.7 µM. The binding of Ansamitocin P3 induces conformational changes in tubulin. Ansamitocin P3 inhibits the proliferation of MCF-7, HeLa, EMT-6/AR1 and MDA-MB-231 cells in culture in a concentration dependent manner. Flow cytometric analysis of PI-stained cells suggests that Ansamitocin P3 inhibits the cell cycle progression of MCF-7 cells in G2/M phase. For example, 26, 50 and 70% of the cells are found to be in G2/M phase in the absence and presence of 50 and 100 pM Ansamitocin P3, respectively[2]. |
Cell Assay: | MCF-7, EMT-6/AR1, HeLa and MDA-MB-231 cells are seeded in 96 well plates. Subsequently, cells are incubated with vehicle (0.1% DMSO) or different concentrations (1-1000 pM) of Ansamitocin P3 for 48 h in MCF-7 cells and 24 h for EMT-6/AR1, HeLa and MDA-MB-231 cells, respectively. The half maximal inhibitory concentration of cell proliferation (IC50) for Ansamitocin P3 is determined by sulforhodamine B assay. Four independent experiments are carried out in MCF-7 cells and three independent sets of experiments are performed in EMT-6/AR1, HeLa and MDA-MB-231 cells[2]. |
