| Targets |
hVEGF-IN-3 targets the VEGF signaling pathway. VEGF is a growth factor that stimulates the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) by binding to its receptors (VEGFRs) on endothelial cells. This compound inhibits the proliferation of cancer cells. By inhibiting hVEGF activity, it reduces tumor growth, and is used to study cell cycle and signal transduction processes.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, hVEGF-IN-3 exhibits significant anti-proliferative effects across several human cell lines. It inhibits the proliferation of HT-29 colorectal adenocarcinoma cells with an IC50 of 61 microM. It also inhibits the proliferation of MCF-7 breast cancer cells (IC50 = 142 microM) and HEK-293 human embryonic kidney cells (IC50 = 114 microM). The high IC50 values indicate it is a moderate inhibitor, and it is used primarily as a research tool.
|
| ln Vivo |
There are no direct reports of the in vivo activity of hVEGF-IN-3. As a small molecule inhibitor of hVEGF, it could theoretically be used in mouse xenograft models to evaluate anti-tumor efficacy. A typical study would involve daily oral administration of the compound to tumor-bearing mice and measuring tumor growth inhibition. However, due to its high IC50 in the low millimolar range, it would likely require high doses, making it a poor drug candidate.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
A non-cellular assay for this compound is not standard, as VEGF is a growth factor, not an enzyme. A direct binding assay could be set up using Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR). Recombinant hVEGF protein is immobilized on a sensor chip. Varying concentrations of hVEGF-IN-3 (0.1-1000 uM) are flowed over the chip, and the binding affinity (KD) is measured. This would confirm direct physical interaction with the VEGF protein.
|
| Cell Assay |
A cell proliferation assay (MTT) is used. HT-29, MCF-7, or HEK-293 cells are seeded in 96-well plates at 5×103 cells/well. After 24 hours, the cells are treated with varying concentrations of hVEGF-IN-3 (0.5-1000 uM) for 48-72 hours. The medium is then replaced with MTT solution and incubated for 4 hours. The formazan crystals are solubilized, and the absorbance is read at 570 nm. The IC50 is calculated from the dose-response curve.
|
| Animal Protocol |
There are no direct in vivo experiments reported for hVEGF-IN-3. If an experiment were to be designed, it would be a mouse xenograft model. Nude mice would be injected with HT-29 cells to establish a subcutaneous tumor. Mice would be treated with intraperitoneal or oral hVEGF-IN-3 (e.g., 50-200 mg/kg). Tumor volume and body weight would be measured. The endpoint would be a reduction in tumor growth compared to a vehicle control.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
hVEGF-IN-3 has a molecular weight of 211.26 g/mol and a predicted logP of approximately 3.5, indicating moderate lipophilicity. It is soluble in DMSO and ethanol. It is not a drug, so PK data is unknown. If administered, it would likely be metabolized by hepatic CYP450 enzymes and have a short half-life. For research use, store at -20degC, protected from light. Soluble in DMSO at 100 mM.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
This is a research chemical and not a drug. Its toxicological profile has not been fully characterized. It may cause skin and eye irritation (H315, H319). Standard laboratory safety precautions (gloves, lab coat, goggles) should be used. It is for research use only. Do not consume. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.

| Additional Infomation |
hVEGF-IN-3 is a small molecule "tool compound" used in cancer biology to inhibit the VEGF pathway. While its potency is modest (IC50 in the 100 uM range), it serves as a probe to study the structure-activity relationship (SAR) for VEGF inhibition. It is distinct from therapeutic VEGF pathway inhibitors like bevacizumab (monoclonal antibody) or small molecule receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (e.g., sunitinib). For research use only.
