Product Description
KY1220 works on the Wnt/β-catenin target, destabilizing β-catenin and Ras. The IC50 in HEK293 reporter cells is 2.1 μM.
KY1220 is a small molecule that functions as a dual destabilizer of β-catenin and Ras by targeting the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. It has a molecular weight of 338.36 g/mol and a molecular formula of C₁₈H₁₄N₂O₄S. KY1220 is a valuable research tool for studying the role of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and Ras signaling in cancer, as both pathways are frequently dysregulated in various malignancies, including colorectal cancer. By promoting the degradation of both β-catenin and Ras, KY1220 disrupts oncogenic signaling and inhibits tumor growth.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
KY1220 targets the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, a critical regulator of cell proliferation, differentiation, and stem cell renewal. By inhibiting this pathway, KY1220 promotes the degradation of β-catenin, a key transcriptional co-activator in the pathway, and simultaneously destabilizes Ras, a small GTPase that is frequently mutated in cancer. This dual-targeting mechanism is unique and makes KY1220 a promising candidate for cancer research, particularly for treating malignancies driven by aberrant Wnt/β-catenin and Ras pathway activation.
ln Vitro
In HEK293 reporter cells, KY1220's IC50 is 2.1 μM. In HEK293 cells, KY1220 dose-dependently decreases the activation of TOPflash reporter gene triggered by Wnt3a-CM as well as the mRNA expression of Wnt target genes MYC and CCND1. Following KY1220 treatment, β-catenin and panRas protein levels in HEK293 cells were also decreased in a dose-dependent manner, while the mRNA levels of CTNNB1 (which encodes β-catenin), NRAS, KRAS, and HRAS did not change. The progression of CRC is significantly influenced by K-Ras, which is also destabilized by KY1220 through polyubiquitin-dependent proteasomal degradation. The breakdown rate of Ras and β-catenin in the SW480 cell line is accelerated by KY1220. In SW480 cells containing KRAS mutations, Ras instability induced by KY1220 suppresses the actions of ERK and Akt, which are downstream effectors of Ras. The growth and transformation of HCT15, SW480, D-WT, and D-MT CRC cells were successfully suppressed following KY1220 treatment [1].
In vitro, KY1220 demonstrates potent activity by destabilizing both β-catenin and Ras. In HEK293 reporter cells, it inhibits Wnt/β-catenin pathway activity with an IC₅₀ of 2.1 μM. The compound dose-dependently decreases Wnt3a-CM-induced TOPflash reporter activation and reduces the mRNA expression of Wnt target genes CCND1 and MYC in HEK293 cells. These in vitro activities confirm its mechanism as a dual destabilizer of β-catenin and Ras and its potential as an anticancer agent.
ln Vivo
Detailed in vivo activity data for KY1220 are not extensively reported in the available literature. However, as a compound that promotes the degradation of β-catenin and Ras and disrupts oncogenic signaling, it is expected to have in vivo efficacy in tumor models. Its ability to target both the Wnt/β-catenin and Ras pathways, which are frequently co-activated in cancers, suggests significant potential for antitumor activity in vivo. Further in vivo studies, such as xenograft models, would be required to fully characterize its therapeutic potential.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cell-based assays for KY1220 are not typical, as its mechanism involves the destabilization of proteins through pathway modulation. However, its activity can be assessed using reporter gene assays in cell-based systems. The compound's ability to inhibit the Wnt/β-catenin pathway can be measured using TOPflash reporter assays in cell lysates.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for KY1220 are performed using HEK293 cells stably transfected with a TOPflash reporter. Cells are treated with the compound at various concentrations, and reporter activity is measured. The compound's ability to inhibit Wnt3a-conditioned medium-induced reporter activation is quantified, and an IC₅₀ of 2.1 μM is determined. The expression of Wnt target genes such as CCND1 and MYC is measured by qPCR to confirm pathway inhibition.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal models for KY1220 would be required to assess its therapeutic potential. Based on its mechanism as a dual destabilizer of β-catenin and Ras, relevant models could include xenograft studies in immunodeficient mice bearing colorectal cancer or other solid tumor cell lines. The compound would be administered via appropriate routes at various doses. Tumor growth inhibition would be monitored over time. Pharmacodynamic markers such as β-catenin and Ras levels in tumor tissues would be assessed.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
KY1220 has a molecular weight of 338.36 g/mol and a molecular formula of C₁₈H₁₄N₂O₄S. Its CAS number is 292168-79-7. The compound is supplied as a solid with a purity of >98%. It is soluble in DMSO. Storage conditions: -20°C. Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters such as half-life, bioavailability, and volume of distribution are not extensively reported in the available literature.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Detailed toxicological data for KY1220 are not extensively reported in the available literature. As a research compound, its safety profile would need to be established through standard preclinical toxicity assessments. The compound is intended for research use only and is not for human consumption. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling the compound.
