Acriflavine is a fluorescent dye for labeling high molecular weight RNA. It is also a topical antiseptic.
Acriflavine is identified as a potent inhibitor of the MCT4 that can inhibit the binding between Basigin and MCT4. Acriflavine significantly inhibits growth and self-renewal potential of several glioblastoma neurosphere lines[1]. The HIF-1 inhibitor acriflavine decreases survival and growth of CML cells. It targets stem cell potential of CML cells[2].
Acriflavine treatment inhibits intratumoral expression of VEGF and tumor vascularization[1]. In a murine CML model, acriflavine decreases leukemia development and reduces LSC maintenance[2]. Acriflavine retards tumor growth in a murine model of breast cancer. The combination of sunitinib with acriflavine significantly decreases vascular endothelial growth factor and TGF-β expression and reduces tumor vasculature followed by increased intratumor necrosis and apoptosis[3].
