Aspulvinone O is a selective inhibitor of glutamate oxaloacetate aminotransferase GOT1. Aspulvinone O inhibits glutamine metabolism and reduces NADPH production, thereby inducing oxidative stress and apoptosis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells. Aspulvinone O inhibits PDAC cell proliferation in vitro and tumor growth in xenograft models.

Description

Aspulvinone O is a selective inhibitor of glutamate oxaloacetate aminotransferase GOT1. Aspulvinone O inhibits glutamine metabolism and reduces NADPH production, thereby inducing oxidative stress and apoptosis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells. Aspulvinone O inhibits PDAC cell proliferation in vitro and tumor growth in xenograft models[1][2].

In Vitro

Aspulvinone O (0.1-100 μM; 48 h) inhibits the proliferation of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell lines (SW1990, PANC-1, AsPC-1) with IC50 of 20.54-26.80 μM, showing selectivity for cancer cells over normal cells[1].
Aspulvinone O (10-40 μM; 48 h) arrests the cell cycle of SW1990 cells at the S phase and induces apoptosis[1].
Aspulvinone O (10-40 μM; 24 h) reduces the levels of glutamine metabolic intermediates (OAA, malate) and the NADPH/NADP+ ratio[1] in SW1990 cells[1].

Cell Viability Assay[1]

Cell Line: SW1990, PANC-1, AsPC-1 (human PDAC cells)
Concentration: 0.1-100 μM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Dose-dependent growth inhibition with IC50 of 20.54 μM (SW1990), 26.80 μM (PANC-1), and 23.12 μM (AsPC-1), respectively, while showed no significant cytotoxicity (IC50 >100 μM) against normal HPDE6C7 cells.
In Vivo

Aspulvinone O (2.5 mg/kg, 5 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; once daily; 14 days) significantly inhibits tumor growth in the SW1990 PDAC cell xenograft model of CB17/scid mice, reducing tumor weight by 40-60%, without obvious systemic toxicity[1].

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

Animal Model: CB17/scid male mice (8 weeks old, ~20 g), SW1990 cell-derived xenograft model[1]
Dosage: 2.5 mg/kg, 5 mg/kg
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.), daily for 14 days, starting when tumors reached ~3 mm diameter
Result: Significantly reduced tumor volume and weight compared to control. Showed a 60% reduction in tumor weight in the 5 mg/kg group, at day 14 and a 55% reduction in tumor volume.
Decreased levels of oxaloacetate (OAA) and malate (~50% reduction), increased aspartate (Asp) and glutamine (Gln) (~30% increase), and a 45% decrease in NADPH/NADP+ ratio compared to control.
No significant changes in body weight or histomorphology, indicating good tolerability.

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.
