Product Description
LLL12 is a STAT3 small molecule inhibitor that can suppress STAT3 phosphorylation. LLL12 enhances the inhibitory activities of cisplatin and paclitaxel on ovarian cancer/tumor cell generation, migration, and growth.
LLL12 is a small molecule inhibitor of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling. It is a potent and selective STAT3 inhibitor that disrupts STAT3 dimerization and prevents its nuclear translocation. LLL12 inhibits STAT3 phosphorylation and downstream target gene expression. It has shown anticancer activity in various cancer cell lines and preclinical models, particularly in cancers with constitutively active STAT3 signaling. The compound is used as a research tool for studying STAT3 biology and as a lead compound for anticancer drug development.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
LLL12 targets signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), a transcription factor that plays a critical role in cell proliferation, survival, angiogenesis, and immune evasion. STAT3 is constitutively activated in many cancers and is associated with poor prognosis. LLL12 inhibits STAT3 dimerization, preventing its translocation to the nucleus and subsequent transcriptional activity. By inhibiting STAT3 phosphorylation and downstream target gene expression (e.g., Bcl-xL, Mcl-1, Cyclin D1, VEGF), LLL12 induces apoptosis and inhibits cancer cell growth.
ln Vitro
Cardiovascular cell viability can be inhibited by LLL12 (0.01-1 μM; 72 h) in response to cisplatin (0.5 μM, 2.5 μM) and paclitaxel (0.25 μM, 0.5 μM) [1].
In vitro, LLL12 inhibits STAT3 phosphorylation and downstream target gene expression in various cancer cell lines. It induces apoptosis and inhibits cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. The compound has shown activity against a wide range of cancer cell lines, including those from breast, lung, prostate, and pancreatic cancers. Detailed IC50 values for cell growth inhibition are not extensively reported in the available literature, but the compound demonstrates potent anticancer activity.
ln Vivo
In mouse osteosarcoma cell and tumor growth, LLL12 (5 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; once daily for 13 days) demonstrates potent growth inhibitory action [2].
In vivo, LLL12 has shown antitumor activity in preclinical models, including xenograft studies in immunodeficient mice. It inhibits tumor growth and induces apoptosis in tumor tissues. The compound has been studied in models of various cancers, including breast, lung, and pancreatic cancer. Detailed in vivo efficacy data are not extensively reported in the available literature, but the compound has demonstrated potential as an anticancer agent.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cell-based assays for LLL12 include STAT3 dimerization assays using purified STAT3 protein. The compound is incubated with STAT3, and dimerization is assessed using gel electrophoresis, fluorescence polarization, or surface plasmon resonance. STAT3 DNA binding activity can be assessed using electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) with STAT3 consensus DNA sequences. Inhibition of STAT3 phosphorylation can be assessed using in vitro kinase assays with purified JAK kinases or using cell lysates.
Cell Assay
Western blot analysis [1]
Cell Types: A2780, SKOV3, CAOV-3 and OVCAR5 ovarian cancer cell lines
Tested Concentrations: 0.25, 0.5 and 1 μM μM) Phosphorylation of STAT3 (Tyr705) in fluorescently labeled dye lines [1]. A2780 and OVCAR5; SKOV3 and CAOV-3 at 1, 2.5 and 5 μM respectively.
Incubation Duration: 72 hrs (hours).
Experimental Results: Inhibition of STAT3 phosphorylation at Tyr705.
Cellular assays for LLL12 utilize cancer cell lines with constitutively active STAT3 signaling. Cells are treated with the compound at various concentrations for specified durations. STAT3 phosphorylation (p-STAT3) and total STAT3 levels are measured by Western blotting. STAT3 target gene expression (e.g., Bcl-xL, Mcl-1, Cyclin D1, VEGF) is measured by qPCR or Western blotting. Cell proliferation is assessed using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays. Apoptosis is evaluated using Annexin V/PI staining or caspase activity assays.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Mouse xenograft SJSA or OS-33 osteosarcoma cells [2]
Doses: 5 mg/kg
Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection; one time/day for 13 days
Experimental Results: Result in OS-33 and SJSA xenograft mice Tumor volume and tumor mass were Dramatically diminished.
In vivo animal models for LLL12 include xenograft studies in immunodeficient mice bearing human cancer cell lines. The compound is administered orally or intraperitoneally at various doses. Tumor growth is monitored by caliper measurements. Tumor tissues are collected for analysis of STAT3 phosphorylation and target gene expression. Apoptosis in tumor tissues is assessed by TUNEL staining or immunohistochemistry for cleaved caspase-3. Toxicity is monitored by body weight and organ histology.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of LLL12 include CAS number 1260247-42-4. The compound is a small molecule STAT3 inhibitor. Detailed PK parameters such as molecular weight, half-life, bioavailability, and solubility are not extensively reported in the available literature. The compound is supplied as a research reagent for laboratory use only.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Detailed toxicological data for LLL12 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 supplied for research use only. Given its mechanism of STAT3 inhibition, potential effects on normal tissues that depend on STAT3 signaling (e.g., immune system, skin) would be key safety considerations.
