Description

Ossirene (AS101), an immunomodulatory tellurium compound, is a potent IL-1β inhibitor[1]. Ossirene abolishes phosphorylation of STAT3 by inhibiting IL-10. Ossirene potently inhibits Caspase-1 and is used for the autoimmune diseases and certain malignancies[2][3][4].

In Vitro

Ossirene (AS101; 1 μg/mL; for 24 hours) almost completely abrogates expression of pStat3. Ossirene may reduce expression of Bcl-2 after inhibition of Stat3 activation via IL-10 inhibition[2].
AS101 (0.5, 5 mg/mL; 24 hours) inhibits IL-1β-induced mRNA expression of inflammatory mediators in the RPE in a dose-dependent manner. AS101 inhibits IL-1β-induced mRNA expression and protein production of IL-6 and IL-8 in RPE cells. AS101 (5 mg/mL; 1 hour) inhibits the phosphorylation of the p65 component of the NFκB complex activated by IL-1β[1].
Ossirene (0.1, 0.5, 1, 2.5 μg/mL) significantly decreases B16 melanoma, stomach adenocarcinoma, and human glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) cells proliferation[2].
AS101 (0.5 μg/mL; for 24 hours) sensitizes GBM tumor cells to paclitaxel in an IL-10-dependent manner[2].

Western Blot Analysis[2]

Cell Line: B16 melanoma cells
Concentration: 1 μg/mL
Incubation Time: For 24 hours
Result: Almost completely abrogated expression of pStat3.

RT-PCR[1]

Cell Line: ARPE19 cells
Concentration: 0.5, 5 mg/mL
Incubation Time: 24 hours

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.
