Description of UNC1999

UNC1999 is an orally active inhibitor of EZH2 (IC50=2nM) and EZH1 (IC50=45nM)[1-2]. UNC1999 can be used to investigate the mechanisms of EZH2 and EZH1 in gene expression regulation, cancer development, and stem cell maintenance[3-4].

In vitro, treatment of human colorectal cancer cells (HCT116, LoVo, HCT-15, DLD-1) with UNC1999 (2.5–5μM) for 24–72 hours induces autophagy by upregulating LC3B gene expression transcriptionally, activates endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and the PERK/eIF2α pathway of the unfolded protein response (UPR), ultimately promoting tumor cell death[5]. UNC1999 (0.1–100μM) treatment of human bladder cancer cell lines E-J and 5637 for 24–120 hours, UNC1999 significantly inhibits cell proliferation and migration while inducing apoptosis by suppressing EZH2 activity and blocking the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway[6].

In vivo, intraperitoneal injection of UNC1999 (15–25mg/kg) twice weekly for 3 weeks in NOG mice bearing MM.1S human multiple myeloma xenografts significantly inhibits tumor growth and prolongs survival[7]. Intraperitoneal injection of UNC1999 (25mg/kg) twice weekly for 4 weeks in BALB/c nude mice inoculated with Y79 human retinoblastoma cells significantly suppresses the growth of subcutaneous xenograft tumors[8].

Protocol of UNC1999

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

E-J and 5637 cells (human bladder cancer cell lines)

Preparation Method

E-J and 5637 cells were maintained in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) at 37°C, 5% CO₂. Cells were treated with the EZH2 inhibitor UNC1999 at concentrations of 0.1, 1, 10, and 100µM for 24, 72, and 120 hours.

Reaction Conditions

0.1-100µM; 24-120h

Applications

UNC1999 significantly inhibited the proliferation of bladder cancer cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. UNC1999 induced significant apoptosis and suppressed cell migration and invasion. Mechanistically, UNC1999 reduced the phosphorylation levels of JAK2 and STAT3, indicating inhibition of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

BALB/c nude mice

Preparation Method

Y79 retinoblastoma cells were subcutaneously injected into the posterior flank of female BALB/c nude mice. After one week of tumor growth, mice were randomly divided into two groups. One group was treated with UNC1999 (25mg/kg, i.p.) twice a week for 3 weeks. The control group received intraperitoneal injections of vehicle (5% DMSO in corn oil). Tumor volume was measured three times per week. Mice were sacrificed after 4 weeks, and tumors were collected for further analysis.

Dosage form

25mg/kg; i.p.; Twice per week for 3 weeks

Applications

UNC1999 administration significantly inhibited the growth of retinoblastoma xenograft tumors in vivo compared to the vehicle control. UNC1999 treatment reduced the protein levels of EZH2 and phosphorylated STAT3 (pY-STAT3) while increasing the expression of FoxO1 in the excised tumors.
