AP-III-a4 (also known as ENOblock) is a novel and potent small molecule inhibitor of enolase which is isolated by small molecule screening in a cancer cell assay to detect cytotoxic agents that function in hypoxic conditions, which has previously been shown to induce drug resistance. AP-III-a4 is the first, nonsubstrate analogue that directly binds to enolase and inhibits its activity (IC50=0.576 uM); inhibit cancer cell metastasis in vivo. In HCT116 cells, AP-III-a4 induces cell death under hypoxia, and inhibits cancer cell migration and invasion by down-regulation of AKT and Bcl-xL expression. In Huh7 hepatocytes and HEK kidney cells, AP-III-a4 induces glucose uptake and inhibits phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) expression. Thus, ENOblock is the first reported enolase inhibitor that is suitable for biological assays. This new chemical tool may also be suitable for further study as a cancer and diabetes drug candidate.
ln Vitro |
In a dose-dependent manner, AP-III-a4 (ENOblock) (0-10 μM; 24 h) decreases the viability of HCT116 cells[1]. Enolase is immediately bound by AP-III-a4, which therefore suppresses its activity[1]. III-a4 (0-10 μM; 24 or 48 h) causes apoptosis in cancer cells and inhibits their migration and invasion[1]. In hepatocytes and kidney cells, AP-III-a4 (10 μM; 24 h) can stimulate glucose uptake and decrease the production of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK)[1].

ln Vivo |
In zebrafish, AP-III-a4 (ENOblock) (10 μM; 96 h) suppresses the gluconeogenesis regulator PEPCK and prevents cancer cells from metastasizing[1].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.20 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 (4.20 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication. 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 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More
Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.20 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. |

*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.
Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
