| Targets |
MRT-83 HCl salt targets the Smoothened (Smo) receptor, a key component of the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway. Smo is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR)-like protein that transmits Hh signals from the cell surface to the cytoplasm. Aberrant Hh signaling is implicated in various cancers, including basal cell carcinoma and medulloblastoma. MRT-83 acts as a potent antagonist of Smo, blocking the Hh signaling pathway. It inhibits the binding of BODIPY-cyclopamine to human Smo. By blocking Smo, MRT-83 can be used to study the role of Hh signaling in cancer and developmental biology.

| ln Vitro |
MRT-83 (hydrochloride) (compound 86) had an IC50 of 15 and 11 nM in bioactivity tests in Shh-light2 and C3H10T1/2 cells, respectively [1].
In vitro, MRT-83 HCl salt potently inhibits Hh signaling in cell-based assays. It blocks Hh signaling in various assays with an IC₅₀ in the nanomolar range. The compound's activity is typically assessed using Gli-luciferase reporter assays in Shh-LIGHT2 cells or other Hh-responsive cell lines. MRT-83 inhibits the binding of BODIPY-cyclopamine to human Smo. The compound is a valuable tool for studying Smo function and Hh signaling in various biological contexts. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, MRT-83 HCl salt has been used to study the role of Hh signaling in cancer and other diseases. As a Smo antagonist, it can block Hh signaling in vivo and inhibit the growth of Hh-dependent tumors. The compound has been used to investigate mechanisms underlying cancer and other diseases. Specific in vivo efficacy data are available from published studies. MRT-83 is a research tool and has not been developed for clinical applications.

| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays for MRT-83 typically involve measuring the inhibition of BODIPY-cyclopamine binding to Smo. A typical protocol: membrane preparations from cells expressing human Smo are incubated with BODIPY-cyclopamine (a fluorescent Smo ligand) and varying concentrations of MRT-83 (0.01 nM to 10 μM) in binding buffer for 60-90 minutes at room temperature. Non-specific binding is determined in the presence of 10 μM unlabeled cyclopamine. Fluorescence is measured using a fluorescence microplate reader. IC₅₀ values are calculated from competition curves. Each concentration is tested in triplicate.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays for MRT-83 are performed using Hh-responsive cell lines such as Shh-LIGHT2 cells or primary cells. A typical protocol: cells are seeded in 96-well plates and treated with MRT-83 at concentrations ranging from 0.01 nM to 10 μM for 24-48 hours. Hh signaling is assessed using a Gli-luciferase reporter assay. Cell viability is assessed using MTT assays to ensure that observed effects are not due to cytotoxicity. Each condition is tested in triplicate, and experiments are repeated at least three times.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for MRT-83 are conducted in mouse models of Hh-dependent tumors. A typical protocol: immunocompromised mice are inoculated subcutaneously with Hh-dependent cancer cells (e.g., medulloblastoma or basal cell carcinoma cells). When tumors reach 50-100 mm³, mice are randomized to receive MRT-83 via oral gavage or intraperitoneal injection at doses of 1-30 mg/kg, daily, for 2-4 weeks. Tumor volumes are measured with calipers every 2-3 days, and body weight is monitored for toxicity. At study termination, tumors are harvested for histopathological examination and biomarker analysis (e.g., Gli1 expression by IHC or qRT-PCR).
