Tubulin polymerization (IC50 = 4 μM)
cis-Trismethoxy resveratrol targets tubulin, the protein that polymerizes to form microtubules. By inhibiting tubulin polymerization, the compound disrupts the microtubule network essential for cell division, leading to anti-mitotic effects. The compound is a cis isomer of 3,5,4'-trimethoxystilbene and exhibits potent anti-mitotic activity. |

| ln Vitro |
Resveratrol (3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene) a natural polyphenol present in medicinal plants, grapes and wines, has potent chemopreventive properties on intestinal carcinogenesis. A methylated derivative (Z-3,5,4'-trimethoxystilbene: R3) was synthesized. R3 at 0.3 microM exerted a 80% growth inhibition of human colon cancer Caco-2 cells and arrested growth completely at 0.4 microM (R3 was 100-fold more active than resveratrol). The cis conformation of R3 was also 100-fold more potent than the trans isomer. R3 (0.3 microM) caused cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase transition. The drug inhibited tubulin polymerization in a dose-dependent manner (IC50=4 microM), and it reduced also by 2-fold ornithine decarboxylase and s-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase activities. This caused the depletion of the polyamines, putrescine and spermidine, which are growth factors for cancer cells. R3 inhibited partially colchicine binding to its binding site on tubulin, indicating that R3 either partially overlaps with colchicine binding or that R3 binds to a specific site of tubulin that is not identical with the colchicine binding site modifying colchicine binding by allosteric influences. The resveratrol derivative (Z)-3,5,4'-trimethoxystilbene (R3) is an interesting anti-mitotic drug that exerts cytotoxic effects by depleting the intracellular pool of polyamines and by altering microtubule polymerization. Such a drug may be useful for the treatment of neoplastic diseases.[1]
In cell-free biochemical assays, cis-Trismethoxy resveratrol inhibits tubulin polymerization with an IC50 of 4 μM. This activity demonstrates the compound's direct inhibition of tubulin assembly into microtubules. The compound's anti-mitotic activity is measured using tubulin polymerization assays. |
| ln Vivo |
In cell-based assays, cis-Trismethoxy resveratrol exhibits anti-mitotic activity. The compound inhibits cell division by disrupting the microtubule network, leading to mitotic arrest. The compound also exhibits potent antioxidant activity. The compound's effects on cell cycle progression and cell viability are evaluated in cell culture models.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The cell-free tubulin polymerization assay involves incubation of purified tubulin with the compound at various concentrations in assembly buffer containing GTP. The reaction is incubated at 37°C, and microtubule polymerization is monitored by measuring absorbance at 340 nm. The IC50 of 4 μM for inhibition of tubulin polymerization is determined from dose-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell-based assays for anti-mitotic activity involve culturing mammalian cells and treating them with cis-Trismethoxy resveratrol at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 50 μM. Cells are incubated for 24-72 hours, and the effect on the microtubule network is assessed by immunofluorescence staining of tubulin. Cell cycle analysis by flow cytometry is performed to assess mitotic arrest. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or CCK-8 assays.
|
| Animal Protocol |
There is no established animal experimental protocol for cis-Trismethoxy resveratrol specifically. As an anti-mitotic agent and microtubule inhibitor, the compound could potentially be evaluated in animal models of cancer. Typical protocols for microtubule inhibitors involve administration to tumor-bearing mice via intraperitoneal or intravenous routes.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of cis-Trismethoxy resveratrol have not been extensively reported. As a small molecule with molecular weight of 270.32 g/mol, the compound would be expected to have moderate oral bioavailability and reasonable tissue penetration. The compound is a cis isomer of 3,5,4'-trimethoxystilbene. Further pharmacokinetic studies would be required to determine plasma half-life, clearance, and metabolic pathways.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity data for cis-Trismethoxy resveratrol are not well documented. As an anti-mitotic agent, the compound would be expected to have toxicity toward rapidly dividing cells, which could translate to bone marrow suppression, gastrointestinal toxicity, and other effects. Standard toxicity studies would be required to determine the safety profile.
