Description

Herboxidiene is a potent phytotoxic polyketide with herbicidal and antitumor activities[1]. Herboxidiene binds to SAP155 protein of the SF3b complex and impairs the function of SF3b, which disturbs the pre-mRNA splicing, producing unspliced RNA species of the p27 gene[2]. Herboxidiene has been widely used to upregulate the gene expression of low-density lipoprotein receptor[3].

In vitro, Herboxidiene treatment for 72 hours significantly inhibited the viability of A431, A549, and DLD-1 cells, with IC50 values of 3.7nM, 21nM, and 51nM, respectively[4]. 0.1µM of Herboxidiene treatment for 6 hours inhibited the invasion and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) induced by VEGF[5]. Treatment with 1µM Herboxidiene for 6 hours induced the selective splicing of MCL-1 and apoptosis in KOPN-8 cells[6].

In vivo, Herboxidiene treatment via intravenous injection of 1mg/kg significantly reduced tumor growth in mice with SV-T2 xenografts within 4 days[4].

Protocol

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)

Preparation Method

Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were cultivated in Endothelial growth medium-2 (EGM-2) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS) at 37°C in an incubator with 5% CO2. Cells were seeded in a 96-well plate at a density of 3×103 cells/well for 24h, with three replicates for each treatment. Cells were incubated with Herboxidiene (0, 0.001, 0.01, 0.04, and 0.16µM) for 72h, the cell viability was detected.

Reaction Conditions

0, 0.001, 0.01, 0.04, and 0.16µM; 72h

Applications

Herboxidiene treatment inhibited the cell viability of HUVECs in a dose-dependent manner.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

BALB/c-nu/nu mice

Preparation Method

BALB/c-nu/nu mice (6 weeks old; 18-22g) were maintained in a controlled environment at 22±1°C and 60% relative humidity under a 12h light/dark cycle, and were fed ad libitum. SV-T2 cells were subcutaneously transplanted into the abdomen of BALB/c-nu/nu mice by using a trocar. Eleven days after the transplantation, the growth of the tumor was confirmed. Herboxidiene was administered via a single intravenous injection of a 1mg/kg dose, and the tumor growth was analyzed in mice.

Dosage form

1mg/kg; once; i.v.

Applications

Herboxidiene treatment significantly reduced tumor growth in mice with SV-T2 xenografts.
