Description of JPH203 (KYT-0353)

JPH203 (KYT-0353) is an orally active selective inhibitor of L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1). JPH203 inhibits tumor cell growth (IC50=0.06μM) and the uptake of essential amino acids such as leucine (IC50=4.1μM). JPH203 downregulates the mTORC1 pathway to suppress protein synthesis and cell proliferation. JPH203 can be used in research on various malignant tumors including prostate cancer, biliary tract cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, and anaplastic thyroid cancer[1-4].

In vitro, treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer cells (C4-2, PC-3, LNCaP) with JPH203 (10-50μM) for 12-72h inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, and suppressed activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway[5]. Treatment of C2C12 myotube cells with JPH203 (50μM) for 48h stimulated protein synthesis[6]. Treatment of triple-negative breast cancer cells with JPH203 (5-10μM) for 5min-1h reduced L-Trp and L-Leucine uptake, decreased NAD+ level, increased NADH level, reduced lactate level, and downregulated p-PKM2 and p-LDHA expression[7].

In vivo, intraperitoneal injection of JPH203 (12.5mg/kg) every other day for 16 days in 4T1-BALB/c tumor-bearing mice inhibited tumor growth and reduced essential amino acid levels in tumor tissue[8]. Daily intravenous injection of JPH203 (25mg/kg) for 14 days in B16-F10 melanoma-bearing mice inhibited tumor growth and reduced the formation of lung metastatic nodules[9]. Daily intraperitoneal injection of JPH203 (50mg/kg) for 6.5 weeks (5 days per week) blocked tumor growth in a mouse thyroid cancer model, increased TUNEL-positive apoptotic bodies, and upregulated Atf5 transcription to activate the amino acid stress response[10].

Protocol of JPH203 (KYT-0353)

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

C4-2 cells, PC-3 cells, LNCaP cells (human castration-sensitive prostate cancer cell line)

Preparation Method

C4-2, PC-3 and LNCaP cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS at 37°C, 5% CO₂. C4-2 and PC-3 cells were treated with JPH203 at 10 or 30μM for 72h for proliferation assays, 48h for migration and invasion assays, 12h for mTOR signaling pathway analysis, and 24h for RNA-seq analysis. L-leucine uptake assay was performed after 48h of JPH203 treatment.

Reaction Conditions

10μM or 30μM

Applications

JPH203 significantly inhibited [14C]leucine uptake in C4-2 and PC-3 cells. JPH203 inhibited proliferation, migration and invasion of C4-2 and PC-3 cells, with IC50 values of 17.3μM and 12.0μM respectively. JPH203 downregulated phosphorylation of S6K1 and 4EBP1 in the mTOR signaling pathway. Through RNA-seq analysis, JPH203 downregulated CD24 expression in a concentration-dependent manner and suppressed activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in C4-2 cells.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

6-weeks old adult BrafCA;Pik3caLat;Thyro::CreERT2 mice

Preparation Method

Thyroid tumorigenesis was induced by intraperitoneal injection of 1mg tamoxifen dissolved in 100μl peanut oil for five consecutive days. Two months after tumor induction, mice were intraperitoneally administered JPH203 diluted in 40%(w/v) Captisol at a concentration of 7.5mg/ml, 200μl per mouse, 5 consecutive days per week for 6.5 weeks.

Dosage form

50mg/kg; i.p.; 5 days/week for 6.5 weeks

Applications

JPH203 treatment exerted an arrest of tumor growth after 14 days of treatment. JPH203 reduced the number of Ki67-positive cells and BrdU-positive cells in thyroid tumors. JPH203 significantly elevated TUNEL-positive bodies in tumors. JPH203 significantly increased Atf5 transcript levels. JPH203 treatment did not cause significant difference in body weight compared to vehicle-treated mice.
