Microtubule[1]
Auristatin F targets microtubules, specifically inhibiting tubulin polymerization. By binding to tubulin, it prevents the formation of microtubules, which are essential for mitotic spindle formation during cell division. This leads to cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase and subsequent apoptosis in rapidly dividing cancer cells. It is a potent inhibitor of microtubule dynamics. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In antibody-drug conjugates, Auristatin F and Monomethyl Auristatin F (MMAF) are strong ADC cytotoxins[1].
In vitro, Auristatin F is a potent microtubule inhibitor and vascular damaging agent. It stops tubulin from aggregating, which stops cell division. It is a strong cytotoxin used in antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Its cytotoxicity has been characterized in various cancer cell lines. Auristatin F and Monomethyl Auristatin F (MMAF) are strong ADC cytotoxins. |
| ln Vivo |
8276.76 ng/mL is the Cmax of auristatin F (5 mg/kg; i.v.; male Sprague-Dawley rats). The clearance (CL) is 77.33 mL/min/kg, which is higher than the rat's hepatic blood flow, and the AUClast is 65661.30 min*ng/mL[2].
In vivo, Auristatin F has been studied in pharmacokinetic studies in male Sprague-Dawley rats. At a dose of 5 mg/kg (i.v.), the Cmax was 8276.76 ng/mL, the clearance (CL) was 77.33 mL/min/kg (higher than the rat's hepatic blood flow), and the AUClast was 65661.30 min*ng/mL. As an ADC payload, its in vivo efficacy and toxicity are dependent on the targeting antibody and linker used. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The activity of Auristatin F can be assessed using cell-free tubulin polymerization assays. Tubulin is incubated with varying concentrations of Auristatin F, and the extent of polymerization is measured spectrophotometrically by monitoring the increase in turbidity. The IC₅₀ for inhibition of tubulin polymerization is determined from dose-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
To evaluate the cellular effects of Auristatin F, cancer cells are treated with the compound. Cell viability, proliferation, and cell cycle distribution are assessed using standard assays such as MTT, BrdU incorporation, and flow cytometry. The effects on microtubule organization are visualized by immunofluorescence microscopy using anti-tubulin antibodies. Apoptosis is measured using Annexin V/PI staining or caspase activity assays.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal Model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats[2]
Dosage: 5 mg/kg Administration: Intravenous injection In vivo studies with Auristatin F typically involve its use as a payload in antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). The ADC is administered to tumor-bearing mice, and its effects on tumor growth, survival, and toxicity are assessed. The pharmacokinetics and biodistribution of the ADC and released Auristatin F are characterized. In some cases, the free drug may be studied in toxicology models. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Auristatin F has a molecular formula of C₄₀H₆₇N₅O₈ and a molecular weight of 746.003 g/mol. Its CAS number is 163768-50-1. It appears as an off-white to yellow solid powder with a density of 1.1±0.1 g/cm³. It has a logP of 4.99. It is soluble in DMSO. The purity is typically ≥98%.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Auristatin F is a potent cytotoxin and should be handled with extreme caution. As a microtubule inhibitor, it can cause severe toxicity in rapidly dividing cells. It is intended for research use only and is not for human consumption. When used in ADCs, its toxicity is targeted to tumor cells, but off-target effects can still occur.
