SGI-1776 (2.5, 5 μM) inhibits Pim-1 protein expression and Pim-1 kinase activity in SACC cells. SGI-1776 (2.5, 5 μM) causes cell cycle arrest and reduces cell proliferation in SACC-83 and SACC-LM cells. SGI-1776 (5 μM) inhibits cell migration and invasiveness in both SACC-83 and SACC-LM cells. SGI-1776 (0, 2.5, or 5 μM) induces apoptosis via Caspase-3 activation[1]. SGI-1776 (5 µM) exerts inhibitory effects on both lipid accumulation and TG synthesis without affecting the number of adipocytes. SGI-1776 (5 µM) inhibits adipogenesis particularly at an early phase of differentiation. SGI-1776 (5 µM) decreases the expression of C/EBP-α and PPAR-γ and the phosphorylation levels of STAT-3 during adipocyte differentiation, and downregulates the protein and/or mRNA expression of FAS, leptin and RANTES during adipocyte differentiation[2]. SGI-1776 shows the significant activity against HO-8910 cells in a dose-dependent manner, with IC50 of (5.2±0.6) µM, and the inhibiting effect of SGI-1776 is sharply increased from 1.25 µM to 20 µM in vitro. SGI-1776 inhibits the migration and invasion of HO-8910 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and the inhibiting migration and invasion rate of 5 µM. SGI-1776 (2.5, 5 and 10 µM) decreases Pim-1 kinase activity of HO-8910 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, the down-regulation of Pim-1 expression by SGI-1776 significantly inhibits cell viability, arrests cell in G1 phase, and inhibits the migration and invasion[3]. |
