| Targets |
Retinoid X receptor (RXR). MSU-42011 is an RXR agonist, meaning it activates RXR signaling. It inhibits the expression of iNOS and p-ERK protein, likely through RXR-mediated pathways.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
MSU-42011 (0-1 μM) has an IC50 value of 158 nM and suppresses iNOS in RAW264.7 macrophage-like cells [1]. In HepG2 cells, MSU-42011 (300 nM; 8 h) exhibits a modest induction of SREBP [1]. In HepG2 cells, MSU-42011 (0-5000 nM; 24 h) activates RXRα [1].
MSU-42011 inhibits the expression of iNOS, low SREBP-induced and activated RXR, and p-ERK at the protein level. It exhibits immunomodulatory and antitumor activity in vitro. Detailed IC50 values are available from specialized databases. |
| ln Vivo |
In the A/J mouse lung cancer model, MSU-42011 (25 mg/kg, PO) dramatically decreased the number, size, and overall burden of tumors. This effect lasted for 12 weeks. Less cells were actively proliferating and the amount of p-ERK was significantly lower than in the control group [1]. Combining MSU-42011 (25 mg/kg; oral; single dosage) with C/P in the A/J mouse lung cancer model resulted in the greatest reduction in tumor number, tumor size, and overall tumor burden. less macrophages in the lungs and more CD8+ T cell activation markers [1]. MSU42011 (PO; single dosage; 100 mg/kg) decreases tumor burden in a lung tumor model in mice [2].
MSU-42011 shows antitumor activity in a KRAS-driven lung cancer mouse model. It is orally active and has immunomodulatory and antitumor activity in vivo. It can be used for cancer research. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro assays for RXR agonism are performed using cell-based reporter assays. Cells are transfected with an RXR-responsive luciferase reporter plasmid and treated with MSU-42011. Luciferase activity is measured.

| Cell Assay |
RT-PCR[1]
Cell Types: HepG2 liver cancer cells Tested Concentrations: 300 nM Incubation Duration: 8 h Experimental Results: SREBP expression ranged from no change to a 1.49-fold induction compared to the vehicle control Cells (e.g., cancer cell lines) are treated with MSU-42011. Cell viability is measured using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays. iNOS and p-ERK protein levels are measured by Western blotting. Immunomodulatory activity is assessed by measuring cytokine production in immune cells. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: A/J mice (intraperitoneal (ip)injected with the carcinogen ethyl carbamate (0.32 mg/injection) for 8 weeks)[1]
Doses: 25 mg/ kg Route of Administration: Oral administration; One week after, ip every other week for a total of 6 injections with Carboplatin (HY-17393) (50 mg/kg) and paclitaxel (15 mg/kg); for 12 weeks Experimental Results: The number and size of detected lung surface tumors increased not in the treatment group Combines with C/P was most effective in reducing tumor number (67% vs. control), tumor size (76% vs. control), and overall tumor burden (92% vs. . control). Animal/Disease Models: A/J lung cancer model (intraperitoneal (ip)injected with the carcinogen ethyl carbamate (0.32 mg/injection) for 8 weeks)[2] Doses: 100 mg/kg Route of Administration: Oral administration; After 2 weeks, each mouse was intraperitoneally (ip) injected with anti-PD1 and anti-PDL1 antibodies at a rate of 50 μg/mouse, twice a week for a total of 22 times Experimental Results: demonstrated that an increase in the ratio of anti-tumor CD8 T cells to CD4, In vivo studies are performed in mouse models of cancer (e.g., KRAS-driven lung cancer). MSU-42011 is administered orally. Tumor volume is measured by imaging or calipers. Tumors are harvested for histology and biomarker analysis. Immune cell populations in the tumor microenvironment are analyzed by flow cytometry. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
MSU-42011 is orally active. It has a molecular weight of 382.54 and a molecular formula of C24H34N2O2. It is soluble in DMSO. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters such as oral bioavailability and half-life are available from specialized databases. It is stored at -20°C.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Detailed toxicological profiles of MSU-42011 are not extensively reported. In vivo studies in mouse models show that it is tolerated at efficacious doses. As an RXR agonist, it may have on-target toxicities, but these are not well-characterized.
