N-Hydroxyphthalimide is a blocking agent and catalyst. N-Hydroxyphthalimide promotes oxidation reactions by generating PINO free radicals and activating hydrogen atom transfer processes. N-Hydroxyphthalimide reduces the expression of anti-apoptotic proteins Survivin and Bcl-xL and activates caspase 9 and caspase 3. N-Hydroxyphthalimide induces Apoptosis. N-Hydroxyphthalimide inhibits the phosphorylation of mTOR (Ser2448, Ser2481) and Akt (Ser473). N-Hydroxyphthalimide has anticancer effects against breast and colon cancer.

Description

N-Hydroxyphthalimide is a blocking agent and catalyst. N-Hydroxyphthalimide promotes oxidation reactions by generating PINO free radicals and activating hydrogen atom transfer processes. N-Hydroxyphthalimide reduces the expression of anti-apoptotic proteins Survivin and Bcl-xL and activates caspase 9 and caspase 3. N-Hydroxyphthalimide induces Apoptosis. N-Hydroxyphthalimide inhibits the phosphorylation of mTOR (Ser2448, Ser2481) and Akt (Ser473). N-Hydroxyphthalimide has anticancer effects against breast and colon cancer[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target[3]

Caspase 9

 

Caspase 3

 

Bcl-xL

 

In Vitro

N-Hydroxyphthalimide (2.5-40 μM; 24-72 h) selectively inhibits the proliferation of human breast carcinoma BT-20 cells, human colon adenocarcinoma LoVo and HT-29 cells by inducing G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis[3].

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

Western Blot Analysis[3]

Cell Line: Decreased the expressions of anti-apoptotic proteins survivin and Bcl-xL.
Activated caspase 9 and caspase 3.
BT-20, LoVo cells
Concentration: 2.5 μM, 5 μM, 10 μM, 20 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Decreased the expressions of anti-apoptotic proteins survivin and Bcl-xL.
Activated caspase 9 and caspase 3.
Suppressed the phosphorylation of mTOR (Ser2448, Ser2481).
In Vivo

N-Hydroxyphthalimide (40 mg/kg; i.p.; 53 days) significantly inhibits tumor growth in BT-20 xenograft models by suppressing both mTORC1 and mTORC2 signaling pathways, without causing obvious toxicity to nude mice[3].

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

Animal Model: Three-week old female BALB/c nude mice; human breast carcinoma BT-20 cell xenograft model[3]
Dosage: 40 mg/kg
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; 53 days (started when tumor volume reached approximately 100 mm3)
Result: Significantly reduced tumor volume and tumor weight.
Achieved a 53% tumor growth inhibition rate.
Decreased the tumor weight by 45%.
Decreased the phosphorylation levels of mTOR at Ser2448, S6 at Ser235/236, 4E-BP1 at Ser65, and Akt at Ser473.

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.
