HSP70
MKT-077 targets mitochondria and heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70). As a cationic rhodacyanine dye, it accumulates in mitochondria due to its positive charge and lipophilic properties. It also inhibits Hsp70, a molecular chaperone involved in protein folding and cell survival. By targeting these cellular components, MKT-077 disrupts mitochondrial function and protein homeostasis, leading to antiproliferative effects. |

| ln Vitro |
Preparation of MKT-077 solution 1.1 Preparation of stock solution Dissolve 1 milligram MKT-077 in 0.2315 mL DMSO to yield 10 mM MKT-077. Note: It is advised that the stock solution be stored at -20°C or -80°C away from light. Preparation of 1.2 MKT-077 functional solution. Use serum-free cell diluent or PBS to take 5-10 μM MKT-077 working solution. Note: Please adjust the concentration of MKT-077 working fluid according to the real conditions. Staining 2.1 Cell preparation. Suspension cells: Centrifuge at 1000 g for 3-5 minutes at 4°C and discard the supernatant. Wash twice with PBS, 5 minutes each time. Adherent cells: Discard the cell culture medium and add islet dissociated cells to produce a single cell suspension. Centrifuge at 1000g for 3-5 minutes at 4°C and discard the supernatant. Wash twice with PBS, 5 minutes each time. 2.2 Add 1 mL MKT-077 working solution and pre-working solution for 30 minutes. 2.3 Centrifuge at 400 g for 3-4 minutes at 4°C and discard the supernatant. 2.4 Wash twice with PBS, 5 minutes each time. 2.5 Resuspend cells in serum-free cell culture media or PBS and detect with fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometer.
MKT-077 demonstrates potent in vitro antiproliferative activity against a broad spectrum of human cancer cell lines, including colon, breast, and pancreatic cancer. It exhibits EC50s of 1.4-2.2 µM in vitro. The compound has low cytotoxicity, suggesting that it selectively targets cancer cells. Its activity is attributed to its mitochondrial accumulation and Hsp70 inhibition. |
| ln Vivo |
Systemic dormancy of MKT-077 greatly inhibited the growth of mouse TT xenografts throughout therapy. At the completion of MKT-077 treatment, the tumor weight in the MKT-077-treated group was determined to be nearly two times lower than that of the head. MKT-077 administration also leads in weight loss and overall toxicity in rats [1]. The results demonstrated that succinate-induced, ADP-stimulated respiratory rhythms in mitochondria separated from transplants given with a daily bolus injection of 15 mg MKT-077 at 1 kg body weight for 5 days were considerably lower than those in untreated cells [3 ].
MKT-077 inhibits tumor growth in nude mouse xenograft models. This demonstrates its in vivo efficacy as an antitumor agent. The compound's ability to accumulate in mitochondria and inhibit Hsp70 contributes to its antitumor effects in vivo. Its low cytotoxicity profile makes it a potentially promising anticancer agent. |
| Enzyme Assay |
MKT-077 does not have a typical enzyme/receptor binding assay. Its activity is assessed in cell-based assays that measure its antiproliferative effects on cancer cell lines. Cells are treated with the compound, and cell viability is measured using assays such as MTT or CellTiter-Glo. The EC50 values are determined from dose-response curves.

| Additional Infomation |
Rhodanine analogue MKT-077 is a synthetic heterocyclic pyridine compound. MKT-077 is a water-soluble, lipophilic cationic molecule and an analogue of rhodanine dyes. It can enter the mitochondria of tumor cells and is believed to act as a metabolic toxin in the mitochondria, leading to G1 phase arrest and apoptosis. This compound also exhibits selective cytotoxicity against cancer cells, the mechanism of which is through binding to the HSP70 family protein MOT-2 and reactivating the function of the tumor suppressor p53.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
