Gemcitabine HCl is a chemically synthesized deoxycytidine derivative and a DNA synthesis inhibitor that can inhibit human serum Paraoxonase 1(PON1) activity in vitro with an IC50 value of 26.610mM. In addition, Gemcitabine HCl can also be used to treat cancers such as breast cancer, bladder cancer and pancreatic cancer.

Gemcitabine HCl is a chemically synthesized deoxycytidine derivative and a DNA synthesis inhibitor that can inhibit human serum Paraoxonase 1(PON1) activity in vitro with an IC50 value of 26.610mM. In addition, Gemcitabine HCl can also be used to treat cancers such as breast cancer, bladder cancer and pancreatic cancer [1-3].
Gemcitabine HCl can inhibit a variety of cell activities, with IC50 values of 240.4±29.0μM (CCRF-CEM/dCK−/− cells), 14.7±2.8nM (TC-1 cells), and 36.7 ± 5.1μM (TC-1-GR cells), 49.7 ± 17.7nM (MIA PaCa-2 cells), 2.12 ± 0.11 (MCF-7 cells) and 2.40 ± 0.15μM (MDA-MB-231 cells)[2-3]. In pancreatic cancer cell lines COLO 357 and L3.6pl, Gemcitabine HCl can significantly inhibit cell growth and increase apoptosis[4].
In a pancreatic cancer patient-derived xenograft mouse model, LPAR4 expression was significantly increased in tumors of mice treated with Gemcitabine HCl (100mg/kg) [5]. In SCID mice orthotopically implanted with COLO 357 cells, Gemcitabine HCl (80mg/kg) inhibited tumor growth in mice and reduced tumor weight by 27%[4]. Gemcitabine HCl (5mg/kg) can inhibit tumor growth in xenotransplantation models in nude mice, and down-regulation of hsa-miR-3178 increases the sensitivity of tumor cells to Gemcitabine HCl[6].

Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | FPAC-1, SW1990, SUIT-2, MIA PaCa-2 and PANC-1 cells |
Preparation Method | Pancreatic cancer cells were treated with Gemcitabine HCl. After 24 hours, cell viability was measured using the Cell Counting Kit-8. |
Reaction Conditions | 0.01,0.1,1,10 and 100μM, 24h |
Applications | Gemcitabine HCl inhibited the viability of CFPAC-1, SW1990, SUIT-2, MIA PaCa-2 and PANC-1 cells. MIA PaCa-2 and PANC-1 cells showed higher resistance to Gemcitabine HCl compared to other cell lines. |
Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Pancreatic cancer patient-derived xenograft mouse model |
Preparation Method | 1–2mm3 PDX fragments (n=8 patient tumor samples) were implanted to pancreas of NOD.Cg-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Wjl/SzJ (NSG) mice. Tumor growth was monitored by weekly ultrasound imaging. Once a tumor size reached 50–100mm3, the mouse was recruited randomly and subsequently treated with vehicle or 100mg/kg Gemcitabine HCl (intraperitoneal injection) twice a week for up to 6 weeks. |
Dosage form | 100mg/kg, Twice a week, 6 weeks, i.p. |
Applications | After 6 weeks of treatment, LPAR4 expression was significantly higher in tumors from Gemcitabine HCl-treated mice compared to the control group. |
