MK-4827

Catalog No.GC17802 Copy One-Click Copy Product Info

MK-4827 is an orally active PARP inhibitor that simultaneously inhibits both PARP1 (IC50=3.8nM) and PARP2 (IC50=2.1nM). MK-4827 blocks DNA repair by inhibiting PARP enzyme activity, thereby inducing cancer cell death.

Description of MK-4827

MK-4827 is an orally active PARP inhibitor that simultaneously inhibits both PARP1 (IC50=3.8nM) and PARP2 (IC50=2.1nM). MK-4827 blocks DNA repair by inhibiting PARP enzyme activity, thereby inducing cancer cell death[1-2]. MK-4827 is used in research for the treatment of various types of cancer[3-4].

In vitro, treatment of ovarian cancer OVCAR8 cells and pancreatic cancer MIA PaCa-2 cells with MK-4827 (10-20μM) for 48 to 72 hours, MK-4827 significantly suppressed STAT3 phosphorylation, induced apoptosis, downregulated the expression of the anti-apoptotic gene BCL2L1, and upregulated the expression of the pro-apoptotic genes CASP3, CASP8, and CASP9[5]. In esophageal squamous cell carcinoma KYSE-30 and KYSE-150 cells, treatment with MK-4827 (5μM) combined with radiotherapy (4Gy) for 24 hours, MK-4827 markedly enhanced radiation-induced DNA double-strand break damage (increased γ-H2AX expression) and promoted apoptosis, while also increasing radiosensitivity by inhibiting FANCG expression[6].

In vivo, in an ovarian cancer peritoneal metastasis model, oral administration of MK-4827 (50mg/kg) to tumor-bearing mice (inoculated with ID8 cells or patient-derived xenografts) three times per week for 3-8 weeks, starting from day 3 or 6 post-inoculation, MK-4827 significantly inhibited tumor growth, reduced the number of abdominal lesions and ascites volume, and induced ferroptosis in tumor cells[7]. In an atherosclerosis model, oral administration of MK-4827 (10mg/kg) to high-fat diet-fed ApoE⁻/⁻ or Ldlr⁻/⁻ mice three times per week for 8-12 weeks, starting from week 4 or 16 of dietary intervention, MK-4827 significantly reduced atherosclerotic plaque burden, decreased necrotic core area, increased fibrous cap thickness, and suppressed phenotypic switching of smooth muscle cells[8].

Protocol of MK-4827

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

OVCAR8 (human ovarian cancer cell line), MIA PaCa-2 (human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell line), PANC-1 (human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell line), PEO1 (human ovarian cancer cell line)

Preparation Method

Cells were maintained in DMEM or RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) at 37°C, 5% CO₂. Cells were treated with MK-4827 at concentrations of 10µM or 20µM for 24 to 72 hours.

Reaction Conditions

10–20μM; 24–72 hours

Applications

MK-4827 significantly inhibited STAT3 phosphorylation (pSTAT3-Y705) in ovarian and pancreatic cancer cell lines, regardless of BRCA mutation status. MK-4827 downregulated the expression of the anti-apoptotic gene BCL2L1 and upregulated pro-apoptotic genes CASP3, CASP8, and CASP9. MK-4827 treatment for 72 hours induced significant apoptosis. The pro-apoptotic effects were mediated through inhibition of the SRC/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

BALB/c nude mice, C57BL/6 mice

Preparation Method

ID8 ovarian cancer cells were injected intraperitoneally into mice. Mice were treated with MK-4827 at 50mg/kg via oral gavage three times per week for 3-8 weeks, either starting from day 6 post-inoculation (prevention) or after 16 weeks of tumor establishment (therapy).

Dosage form

50mg/kg; p.o.; Three times per week for 3-8 weeks.

Applications

MK-4827 significantly inhibited ovarian cancer progression and induced regression of established metastases in mouse models. MK-4827 reduced tumor burden, decreased ascites volume, and diminished the number of abdominal lesions.
