产品名称：CPI203,BETInhibitor

Biological Activity:

CPI203 is a novel potent, selective and cell permeable inhibitor of the bromodomain and extra terminal (BET) family protein BRD4 with an IC₅₀ of ~37 nM (BRD4 α-screen assay). It has an IC₅₀ of ~99 nM in inhibiting Myc expression in MV4-11 cells and an IC₅₀ of ~30 nM in inhibiting IL-6 production in THP-1 cells stimulated with LPS, decreases specific Ser2 phosphorylation of the carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) of the RNA polymerase II (Pol II) by either endogenous BRD4 or a BRD4 mutant, BRD4 FEE-AAA, that is incapable of binding PTEFb. CPI203 is an analog of JQ-1 but has shown superior bioavailability with oral or intraperitoneal (IP) administration. When mice that were transplanted with primary mouse T-ALL cells, either Fbxw7+/+ or Fbxw7mut/+, were treated with CPI203 at 5 mg/Kg orally twice per day, a significant and rapid reduction in leukemia burden was observed. CPI203 is a useful chemical probe to study the suppression of Myc-dependent cancer development. 

How to Use:

• In vitro:  CPI203 was used at 0.5-1 µM final concentration in various in vitro assays.
• In vivo: CPI203 could be dosed to the mice by oral administration at 5 mg/kg twice per day for 7 days.
