Description of PAC-1

PAC-1 is an orally active small-molecule procaspase-3 activator that induces cancer cell apoptosis with an EC50 of 2.08μM. PAC-1 can be used in the research of malignant tumors and hematologic cancers[1-4].

In vitro, PAC-1 (10–50μM) was added to HeLa cervical cancer cells for 15min, significantly reduced the intracellular free Zn²⁺ concentration, triggered endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca²⁺ release, and increased the cytoplasmic Ca²⁺ concentration. PAC-1 (25μM) was applied to U-937 lymphoma cells or HL-60 leukemia cells for 6h, significantly upregulating the expression of genes such as DDIT4, JUN, ATF3, and TNF, thereby inducing apoptosis. PAC-1 (100μM) was administered to U-937 lymphoma cells for 1–3h or to HeLa cells for 15–60min, which significantly induced ER stress and mitochondrial morphological speckling, downregulated TNF expression, and triggered cell death[5]. PAC-1 (1–30μM) was incubated with UMR106 osteosarcoma-like cells for 24h, significantly upregulating Fgf23 gene expression while reducing cell proliferation and viability[6].

In vivo, PAC-1 (0.15, 1.5, or 15nmol/site; single) was subcutaneously injected into the periorbital region of C57BL/6J mice. PAC-1 significantly induced dose-dependent and sustained periorbital mechanical allodynia[7]. PAC-1 (50mg/kg; once daily) was intraperitoneally injected into SCID or Balb/c nude mice bearing human breast cancer (MDA-MB-435), liver cancer (Hep3B), or gallbladder cancer (GBC-SD) xenografts for 30 days. PAC-1 significantly inhibited the in vivo growth of these tumors, which highly expressed procaspase-3[8].

Protocol of PAC-1

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

UMR106 cells (rat osteoblast-like cell line)

Preparation Method

UMR106 cells were maintained in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) containing 25mM glucose and 1mM pyruvate, supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 100U/mL penicillin, and 100μg/mL streptomycin at 37°C, 5% CO₂. After seeding into 6-well plates for 24h, UMR106 cells were treated with PAC-1 (1-10μM) for 24 hours.

Reaction Conditions

1-10μM; 24h

Applications

PAC-1 significantly up-regulated Fgf23 gene expression in UMR106 cells. PAC-1 also reduced cell proliferation and viability in a dose-dependent manner.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

7- to 8-week old male SCID mice and Balb/c nude mice bearing human tumor xenografts (MDA-MB-435 breast cancer, Hep3B liver cancer, GBC-SD gallbladder cancer, or MCF-7 breast cancer).

Preparation Method

When the average subcutaneous tumor volume reached approximately 100mm³, mice were randomly divided into treatment and control groups (eight mice per group). PAC-1 was administered via intraperitoneal injection once daily for a period of two to four weeks. Mice were subsequently sacrificed, and tumors were excised and stored at -80°C for further analysis.

Dosage form

50mg/kg; i.p.; once daily for 30 days

Applications

PAC-1 significantly inhibited the in vivo growth of MDA-MB-435, Hep3B, and GBC-SD xenograft tumors which overexpress procaspase-3. Conversely, PAC-1 had no effect on the growth of MCF-7 xenograft tumors, which do not express procaspase-3. The administration of PAC-1 did not induce substantial weight loss but was associated with signs of neurotoxicity (ataxia) at high doses.
