Description of NSC232003

NSC232003 is a small molecule inhibitor targeting UHRF1 [1]. NSC232003 binds to the 5-methylcytosine recognition pocket of the SRA domain of UHRF1, thereby interfering with the interaction between UHRF1 and DNMT1, leading to a decrease in intracellular DNA methylation levels [2-3]. NSC232003 is primarily focused on tumor and epigenetic interventions [4].

In NRK-49F cells, NSC232003 (50μM; 1h) significantly reduced TGF-β1-induced KLF15 hypermethylation, while also decreasing the expression of α-SMA and fibronectin [5]. In fibroblasts, NSC232003 (5μM; 4h) exerts a significant anti-fibrotic effect by inhibiting the protein expression of fibrosis markers [6].

In KYSE450 cells xenograft mouse model, NSC232003 (5 mg/kg; ip; 3 weeks) significantly inhibited UHRF1 activity, and its combination with the DNMT inhibitor SGI-1027 more effectively suppressed NKX2-5/LHX1 expression and tumor growth by disrupting the UHRF1-DNMT positive feedback loop [7].

Protocol of NSC232003

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

NRK-49F cells

Preparation Method

NRK-49F cells were starved overnight in DMEM containing 0% FBS prior to any stimulation. Pre-incubation of 50μM NSC232003 was carried out 1h before TGF-β1 treatment. The dosage levels and times of TGF-β1 were adopted as indicated. Cells were free from mycoplasma contamination.

Reaction Conditions

50μM; 1h

Applications

NSC232003 significantly reduced TGF-β1-induced KLF15 hypermethylation, while also decreasing the expression of α-SMA and fibronectin.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

KYSE450 cells xenograft mice tumor model

Preparation Method

KYSE450 cells were implanted into BALB/c nude mice. One week later, the mice were randomly divided into four groups, receiving either the vector, NSC232003 (5mg/kg), SGI-1027 (5mg/kg), or a combination of NSC232003 and SGI-1027, respectively. The inhibitor was administered intraperitoneally for 3 weeks. Tumor size was measured every 3-4 days, and the tumor was resected 3 weeks after implantation.

Dosage form

5mg/kg; ip; once in 3 weeks

Applications

NSC232003 significantly inhibited UHRF1 activity. When used in combination with the DNMT inhibitor SGI-1027, it can more effectively downregulate NKX2-5/LHX1 expression, block the UHRF1-DNMT positive feedback loop, and inhibit the growth of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
