Cat. No.: HY-16232 Purity: ≥98.0%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

Glufosfamide is a glucose-conjugated alkylating cytotoxic agent and a derivative of Ifosfamide (HY-17419). Glufosfamide induces apoptosis frequency and increase the expression of caspase-9 and caspase-3 in cancer cells. Glufosfamide shows great anti-tumor activity in MiaPaCa-2-RFP mouse model. Glufosfamide can be used for the study of hepatocellular carcinoma, prostate cancer and pancreatic carcinoma.

Description

Glufosfamide is a glucose-conjugated alkylating cytotoxic agent and a derivative of Ifosfamide (HY-17419). Glufosfamide induces apoptosis frequency and increase the expression of caspase-9 and caspase-3 in cancer cells. Glufosfamide shows great anti-tumor activity in MiaPaCa-2-RFP mouse model. Glufosfamide can be used for the study of hepatocellular carcinoma, prostate cancer and pancreatic carcinoma[1][2][3].

In Vitro

Glufosfamide (10-1000 μM, 24-72 h) exhibits cytotoxicity in a concentration- and time-dependent manner in HepG2 cells, with lower IC50 values (24 h: 112.32 μM; 48 h: 83.23 μM; 72 h: 51.66 μM)[1].
Glufosfamide (10-50 μM, 48-72 h) induces apoptosis frequency and increase the expression of caspase-9 and caspase-3 in HepG2, LNCaP and PC-3 cells[1][3].
Glufosfamide (10-50 μM, 48-72 h) downregulates Bcl2 gene expression and reduces mitochondrial membrane potential and cellular ATP levels in HepG2 cells[1].
Glufosfamide (10 mg/mL, 24 h) combined with Gemcitabine (HY-17026) (1 mg/mL) shows a more significant inhibitory effect on the growth of MiaPaCa-2, H766t, and PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cells in proliferation assays compared to single-agent treatmentand induces slightly more than additive apoptosis (sub-G1 phase)[2].
Glufosfamide (0.1-300 μM, 72 h) exhibits concentration-dependent cytotoxicity in LNCaP and PC-3 prostate cancer cells, with IC50 values of 86.8 μM and 70 μM, respectively[3].
Glufosfamide (0.1-300 μM, 72 h) combined with Docetaxel (HY-B0011) down-regulates Bcl-2 expression and up-regulates Bax, caspase-3, and caspase-9 expression in LNCaP and PC-3 prostate cancer cells[3].

Glufosfamide (10-30 mg/kg, i.v., daily, 14 days) significantly reduces tumor volume when combined with Gemcitabine in MiaPaCa-2-RFP orthotopic nude mouse model[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: MiaPaCa-2 cells stably expressing red fluorescent protein (RFP) (5 × 106 in 200 µL) were subcutaneously implanted into the flanks of nude mice to generate tumor stocks[2]
Dosage: 3, 10, 30, 100 mg/kg
Administration: i.v. daily for 14 days
Result: Achieved dose-dependent tumor volume reduction in MiaPaCa-2-RFP orthotopic nude mouse model, with 100 mg/kg.
Significantly prolonged 50% survival at doses 30 or 100 mg/kg.
Animal Model: MiaPaCa-2 cells (1 × 106) were injected intrapancreatically into nude mice after midline incision and laparotomy under isoflurane anesthesia[2]
Dosage: 10, 30 mg/kg combined with Gemcitabine (300 mg/kg, i.p., weekly)
Administration: i.v. daily for 14 days
Result: Resulted in significantly greater tumor volume reduction.
Prolonged survival in MiaPaCa-2-RFP orthotopic model.
Reduced metastatic incidence.
Enhanced apoptosis (increased TUNEL staining) and proliferation inhibition (decreased PCNA staining).
Showed no significant changes in body weights of treated mice.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
