Description of LLL12

LLL12 is a specific small molecule inhibitor of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) that inhibits STAT3 phosphorylation[1]. STAT3 is a key signal transducer and transcriptional activator, involved in various biological functions such as cell cycle regulation, survival and apoptosis, immune modulation, metabolic processes, and tumor progression. Its abnormal activation is closely related to the occurrence and development of various diseases[2]. LLL12 effectively suppresses the growth, migration, and invasion of tumor cells by inhibiting the activity of STAT3 and is commonly used in cancer research[3-4].

In vitro, the IC50 values of LLL12 for RD2, RH30, and U2OS cells were 2.85μM, 0.47μM, and 1μM, respectively. After 72 hours of treatment, LLL12 significantly inhibited cell proliferation[5]. LLL12 (5 or 10μM; 2h)inhibits STAT3 signaling and blocks the anti-apoptotic activity of IL-6 in human liver cancer cells[6]. LLL12 (0.1, 1.0, 0.1 and 0.01µM for A2780, SKOV3, CAOV-3 and OVCAR5, respectively; 72h) enhanced the inhibitory effect of Cisplatin and Paclitaxel on ovarian cancer cell formation, migration, and growth[4].

In vivo, LLL12 (5mg/kg/day for 13 days; i.p.) suppressed STAT3 phosphorylation and resulted in a significant reduction in tumor volume and tumor mass in the OS-33 and SJSA xenografted mice, relative to the vehicle[7].

Protocol of LLL12

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Hep3B and SNU-398 cells

Preparation Method

Hep3B cells were cultured in Minimum Essential Medium, Eagle (MEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. SNU-398 were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium (ATCC) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. After treatment with serum-free medium for 24h, cells were pretreated with 5 or 10μM LLL12 for 2h followed by 50ng/ml of IL-6 for 30min. Then cells were collected for Western Blot and Immunofluorescence.

Reaction Conditions

5 or 10μM; 2h

Applications

LLL12 inhibit of STAT3 signaling and blocks the anti-apoptotic activity of IL-6 in human liver cancer cells.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

Female athymic nude mice

Preparation Method

SJSA cells (1×107) in Matrigel were injected subcutaneously into the flank region of four to five week-old female athymic nude mice. After tumors developed, the mice were randomly sorted into three treatment groups consisting of six mice per group: DMSO vehicle group, 5mg/kg LLL12, and 50mg/kg FLLL32. Tumor growth was determined by measuring the major (L) and minor (W) diameter with a caliper. After 14 days of treatment, tumors were harvested from dead mice, frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80°C. Western blotting was then performed on tumor tissue homogenates to examine the expression of STAT3 phosphorylation and the induction of apoptosis in vehicle and inhibitor treated mice.

Dosage form

5mg/kg/day for 13 days; i.p.

Applications

LLL12 suppressed STAT3 phosphorylation and resulted in a significant reduction in tumor volume and tumor mass in the OS-33 and SJSA xenografted mice.
