FTI 277 HCl is a potent and selective farnesyltransferase (FTase) inhibitor with an IC50 value of 0.5nM, exhibiting approximately 100-fold greater selectivity over geranylgeranyltransferase I (GGTase I)[1]. FTase-mediated farnesylation is the first irreversible and rate-limiting step for Ras membrane association, and is an obligatory modification for the biological activity of oncogenic Ras[2]. FTI 277 HCl is commonly used in research on the function of farnesyltransferase and the role of Ras-mediated signaling pathways in diseases such as cancer[3,4].
In vitro, treatment of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) with FTI 277 HCl (20μM) for 10 days significantly inhibited β-glycerophosphate (βGP)-induced mineral deposition, reduced the mRNA expression of Runx2 and Msx2, and up-regulated the expression of MGP[5]. Pretreatment of breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells with FTI 277 HCl (50μM) for 24h inhibited epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced activation of H-Ras in the membrane fraction, but did not inhibit the activation of N-Ras[6].
In vivo, administration of FTI 277 HCl (1 and 5mg/kg/day) via intraperitoneal injection in SCID mice inoculated with human colon cancer HT29 cells for 3 weeks significantly reduced relative spleen weight and primary splenic tumor volume, as well as relative liver weight and liver metastasis volume, without causing significant toxicity[7]. In mice treated with FTI 277 HCl (25mg/kg) via intraperitoneal injection before L-arginine-induced pancreatitis, samples were harvested 72h after the first dose of L-arginine. FTI 277 HCl administration significantly reduced L-arginine-induced myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels and the number of extravascular neutrophils in the pancreas[8].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | MDA-MB-231 (breast cancer cells) |
Preparation Method | H-Ras and N-Ras are mainly located on the inner side of the cell membrane. To collect membrane fractions, cells were treated with FTI 277 HCl (50µM) for 24h and EGF (10ng/ml) for 30min prior to lysis. |
Reaction Conditions | 50μM; 24h |
Applications | FTI 277 HCl inhibited the EGF-induced activation of H-Ras, but not that of N-Ras, in membrane fractions of MDA-MB-231 cells. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | SCID mice inoculated with HT29 cells |
Preparation Method | HT29 cells (1.5 × 106 cells) were inoculated into the spleen of SCID mice. After inoculation, FTI 277 HCl (1 and 5mg/kg/day) was administered daily for 3 weeks i.p. to SCID mice. |
Dosage form | 1 and 5mg/kg/day; 3 weeks; i.p. |
Applications | FTI 277 HCl treatment significantly reduced relative spleen weight and splenic primary tumor volume and also significantly reduced relative liver weight and liver metastasis volume. And no toxicity (diarrhea or loss of body weight) was detected in the FTI 277 HCl treatment group. |
