FOSL1 (AP-1 transcription factor family member) [1]
CRBN E3 ligase |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
- FOSL1 degradation: FOSL1 degrader 1 (compound 4) induced dose-dependent FOSL1 protein degradation in HN-SCC cancer stem cells (CSCs) with an EC50 of 0.8 μM, as determined by Western blot. Degradation was proteasome-dependent, as co-treatment with MG132 rescued FOSL1 levels [1].
- CSC elimination: The compound reduced CSC colony formation efficiency by 75% at 2 μM in sphere-formation assays. Flow cytometry revealed a 60% decrease in CD44+/CD24- CSC population after 48-hour treatment [1]. - Mechanism: Degradation of FOSL1 led to downregulation of stemness markers (SOX2, OCT4, NANOG) and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) regulators (SNAIL, TWIST1) at both mRNA and protein levels [1]. |
| ln Vivo |
- Tumor growth inhibition: In a xenograft model using HN-SCC CSCs, oral administration of FOSL1 degrader 1 (50 mg/kg daily for 21 days) reduced tumor volume by 62% compared to vehicle control. Immunohistochemistry showed decreased FOSL1 expression and Ki-67 proliferation index in treated tumors [1].
- Metastasis suppression: Lung metastasis nodules were reduced by 80% in mice treated with the compound (50 mg/kg daily), correlating with decreased VEGF and MMP-9 expression in primary tumors [1]. |
| Enzyme Assay |
- FOSL1 binding assay: Recombinant FOSL1 protein was incubated with FOSL1 degrader 1 (0.1–10 μM) in binding buffer. Binding affinity (KD = 0.3 μM) was determined by surface plasmon resonance (SPR), showing specific interaction between the compound and FOSL1 [1].
- E3 ligase recruitment: HEK293T cells co-expressing FOSL1 and VHL E3 ligase were treated with the compound. Co-immunoprecipitation confirmed formation of a ternary complex between FOSL1, VHL, and the PROTAC, leading to FOSL1 ubiquitination [1]. |
| Cell Assay |
- Apoptosis induction: Annexin V/PI staining revealed a 35% increase in apoptotic HN-SCC CSCs after 48-hour treatment with 1 μM FOSL1 degrader 1, accompanied by caspase-3 activation and PARP cleavage [1].
- Migration/invasion assay: Transwell migration and Matrigel invasion were reduced by 50% and 60%, respectively, at 2 μM, associated with decreased F-actin polymerization and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) phosphorylation [1]. |
| Animal Protocol |
- Xenograft model: BALB/c nude mice received subcutaneous injection of HN-SCC CSCs (5×10⁶ cells/mouse). FOSL1 degrader 1 was formulated in 10% DMSO/90% PEG 400 and administered orally at 50 mg/kg daily for 21 days. Tumor volume was measured twice weekly using calipers [1].
- Metastasis model: CSCs were injected into the tail vein of mice. After 2 weeks, FOSL1 degrader 1 (50 mg/kg daily) was administered orally for 4 weeks. Lungs were harvested and metastatic nodules counted after hematoxylin-eosin staining [1]. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Oral bioavailability: In rats, FOSL1 degrader 1 showed moderate oral bioavailability (F = 32%) with a plasma half-life of 3.5 hours. The highest tissue concentrations were detected in the liver and tumor tissues [1]. Metabolism: The compound is primarily metabolized in the liver via CYP3A4 to form an inactive glucuronide conjugate. No significant accumulation was observed in repeated-dose studies [1].
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Acute toxicity: The oral LD50 in mice exceeded 2000 mg/kg. No death or significant weight loss was observed at therapeutic doses (≤100 mg/kg) [1]. - Safety: In a 28-day rat study, oral administration of FOSL1 degrader 1 (50 mg/kg daily) did not have adverse effects on hematology, liver and kidney function, or histopathology [1].

| Additional Infomation |
Mechanism of action: PROTAC molecules recruit VHL E3 ligase, induce FOSL1 ubiquitination and proteasome degradation, thereby disrupting AP-1-mediated transcription of stemness and metastasis-related genes [1].
- Therapeutic potential: In vitro and in vivo experiments have demonstrated its efficacy against chemotherapy-resistant head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HN-SCC) stem cells with good safety profile. This compound represents a novel strategy for targeting cancer stemness [1]. - Structure-activity relationship: The length of the linker chain between the FOSL1-binding group and the VHL-binding group is crucial for the formation of the ternary complex. Optimal activity is obtained using a 12-atom linker chain [1]. |
