Description of PY-60

PY-60 is a thiazole-substituted derivative with 5-phenylisoxazole as its core structure, which can potently and specifically activate the transcriptional activity of YAP (EC50 = 1.6µM) [1]. PY-60 promotes the release of ANXA2 from the cell membrane, weakens its binding restriction to YAP, thereby enhancing the dephosphorylation of YAP and promoting its translocation into the nucleus, thereby activating the transcriptional coactivator function of YAP [1-2]. PY-60 is often used for tissue regeneration and repair [3].

In human retinoblastoma (RB) cells Y79 and RB3823, PY-60 (0, 1, 5, 10μM; 24h) treatment induced transcriptionally active YAP, thereby inhibiting the proliferation of RB cells Y79 and RB3823 [4]. In MDA-MB-231 cells, PY-60 (0, 2, 4, 8μM; 24h) promotes proliferation, migration, and invasion of high-density MDA-MB-231 cells [5]. In A549 and NCI-H358 cells, PY-60 (10μM; 24h) reversed the inhibitory effect of RFX2 overexpression on LUAD cells [6]. In HuCCT1 cells, PY-60 (10μM; 24h) reversed the inhibitory effects of PIN1 knockdown on cell migration, adhesion, and invasion [7].

In C57BL/6 WT mice, PY-60 (10mg/mL; smear; 10d) treatment enhances the colony forming potential of primary epidermal keratinocytes in mice [1]. In the rat subarachnoid hemorrhage model, PY-60 (0.2mg/kg; intraventricular administration; single injection) partially abolished the neuroprotective effect of NE-52-QQ57 [8].

Protocol of PY-60

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Human retinoblastoma cells Y79 and RB3823

Preparation Method

The cell viability of human retinoblastoma cells Y79 and RB3823 was detected using the MTS kit. The cells were seeded in a 96-well plate at a density of [1-2]×103 cells per well. After 24h of culture, different concentrations of PY-60 (0, 1, 5, 10μM) were added to treat the cells. The treatment lasted for 24h, and 20μL of MTS reagent was added to each well in the last 4h.

Reaction Conditions

0, 1, 5, 10μM; 24h

Applications

Cell proliferation of Y79 and RB3823 cells were suppressed by 10μM PY-60 confirmed by MTS assay.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

C57BL/6 mice

Preparation Method

C57BL/6 WT mice (8 weeks of age) were treated once per day (topically, on the skin) for ten consecutive days with either vehicle only (acetone) or PY-60 (10mg/mL). The epidermis was assessed for thickness using H&E staining. Anti-K14 and anti-K167 immunofluorescent staining were used to assess cell expansion. In all models, animals were randomly assorted into groups of equal mean body weight before topical dosing.

Dosage form

10mg/mL; smear; 10d

Applications

PY-60 treatment enhances the colony forming potential of primary epidermal keratinocytes in mice.
