Product Description
NSC 48160 suppresses the growth of pancreatic cancer cells with IC50 of 84.3 μM for CPFAC-1 and IC50 of 94.5 μM for BxPC-3. NSC 48160 can also cause apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cells. NSC 48160 can improve metabolic syndromes such as NASH, obesity and lipid metabolism disorders.
NSC 48160 is a synthetic organic compound. It has been studied in the context of DNA damage and cellular stress responses. Based on its structure (a heterocyclic aromatic compound), it may be used as a research tool in cancer biology and chemical genetics, but specific information on its biological activity is limited. It is a research chemical.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Not defined. The specific molecular target of NSC 48160 has not been identified in the literature. It is a synthetic chemical of unknown mechanism. It has been studied in the context of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) 60-cell line screening program, where it may have shown some activity, but the exact target or mechanism has not been published.
ln Vitro
No specific in vitro activity data has been reported. The compound has likely been evaluated in the NCI 60-cell line screening program, but specific IC50 values are not publicly available. It may have some antiproliferative activity in certain cancer cell lines, but the data has not been disclosed. It is a synthetic compound that may be used as a reference or control.
ln Vivo
No specific in vivo activity data has been reported. The compound has not been extensively studied in animal models. It is primarily a research chemical of unknown efficacy. Any potential in vivo activity would need to be evaluated experimentally.
Enzyme Assay
Not applicable, as no defined target exists. Without a known target, no cell-free binding assays can be described. To identify potential protein targets, an affinity chromatography approach could be employed, where NSC 48160 is immobilized on a solid support and used to pull down binding proteins from cell lysates, followed by identification by mass spectrometry. However, such studies have not been published.
Cell Assay
For in vitro screening, cancer cell lines (e.g., HeLa, MCF-7, or A549) are seeded in 96-well plates (5×103 cells/well) and treated with NSC 48160 at concentrations ranging from 0.1-100 uM for 48-72 hours. Cell viability is assessed by MTT or CellTiter-Glo assay. The GI50 (50% growth inhibition) value can be calculated from a dose-response curve. Cell cycle analysis can be performed by flow cytometry after propidium iodide staining. Apoptosis can be measured by Annexin V/PI staining. However, no specific data is available for this compound.
Animal Protocol
No specific in vivo animal study protocols are documented. For a compound that has shown promising in vitro activity, a typical protocol would involve establishing subcutaneous tumor xenografts of a cancer cell line in 6-8 week old female BALB/c nude mice. When tumors reach 100-150 mm3, NSC 48160 would be administered via intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection or oral gavage at doses of 10-50 mg/kg, daily for 2-3 weeks. Tumor volume would be measured with calipers twice weekly. Body weight would be monitored for signs of toxicity. At the end of the study, tumors would be excised and analyzed for proliferation (Ki67) and apoptosis (TUNEL).
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
No pharmacokinetic data has been reported. As a small molecule with a molecular weight of 256.30 g/mol, the compound may have moderate oral bioavailability, but this is speculative. Its ADME properties have not been characterized.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No specific toxicity data has been reported. As a research chemical with unknown biological activity, comprehensive toxicological evaluation has not been conducted. Standard chemical safety precautions should be used when handling this compound.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~100 mg/mL (~363.07 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.08 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.08 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
