Description: HO-3867 (HO3867; HO 3867), an analog of curcumin, is a novel, selective and potent STAT3 inhibitor with potential antitumor activity. HO-3867 selectively inhibited STAT3 phosphorylation, transcription, and DNA binding without affecting the expression of other active STATs. O-3867 may be useful to treat ovarian cancer and other solid tumors where STAT3 is commonly upregulated. HO-3867 exhibited minimal toxicity toward noncancerous cells and tissues but induced apoptosis in ovarian cancer cells. Pharmacologic analysis revealed greater bioabsorption and bioavailability of the active (cytotoxic) metabolites in cancer cells compared with normal cells.

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2
In vitro activity: HO-3867 produces significant cytotoxicity in A2780 and other tested ovarian cancer cell lines, with less toxic to noncancerous ovarian surface epithelial cells. HO-3867 induces G(2)-M cell cycle arrest in A2780 cells and promotes apoptosis by caspase-8 and caspase-3 activation. HO-3867 blocks the JAK/STAT3 pathway in human ovarian cancer cell lines.
Kinase Assay: HO-3867 is a selective and potent STAT3 inhibitor and shows good antitumor activity.
Cell Assay: Cell viability is determined by a colorimetric assay using MTT. In the mitochondria of living cells, yellow MTT undergoes a reductive conversion to formazan, producing a purple color. Cells, grown to ~80% confluence in 75-mm flasks, are trypsinized, counted, seeded in 96-well plates with an average population of 7,000 cells/well, incubated overnight, and then treated with HO-3867 for 24 h. All experiments are done using 8 replicates and repeated at least three times.
