Apogossypolone is an inhibitor of Bcl-2, Mcl-1 and Bcl-XL with Ki values of 35nM, 25nM and 660nM, respectively [1].

The MTT-based cell cytotoxicity assay shows that apogossypolone has an anticancer activity with IC50 values of 1, 2 and 3μM, respectively in PC-3, DU-145 (human prostate cancer cell lines) and MDA-MB-231(human breast cancer cell line). Apogossypolone is also found to inhibit the colony formation of DU-145 cells. The mechanism is that apogossypolone binds to Bcl-2 and prevents its association with BH3-only pro-apoptotic proteins, leading the pro-apoptotic proteins to participate in the apoptotic response [2].

Besides prostate cancer and breast cancer, apogossypolone is also potent in follicular lymphoma. Apogossypolone significantly inhibits the cell growth via inducing apoptosis in WSU-FSCCL cell line with IC50 value of 109.2nM at 72h [3].
