MeTC7 is a vitamin D receptor (VDR) antagonist with potent VDR inhibitory activity and an IC₅₀ of 2.9 μM. It has a molecular formula of C₃₂H₄₈BrN₃O₄ and a molecular weight of 618.65 g/mol. MeTC7 shows good antitumor effects, suppresses the viability of cancer cell lines, and reduces the growth of spontaneous transgenic TH-MYCN neuroblastoma and xenografts in vivo. It can be synthesized from 7-dehydrocholesterol in two steps.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
IC50: 2.9 μM (VDR)[1].
MeTC7 targets the vitamin D receptor (VDR). As an antagonist, it binds to VDR and inhibits its activity. VDR is a nuclear receptor that mediates the effects of vitamin D on calcium homeostasis, bone metabolism, immune function, and cell proliferation. By inhibiting VDR, MeTC7 modulates vitamin D signaling pathways. The compound shows potent VDR inhibitory activity with an IC₅₀ of 2.9 μM. It shows good antitumor effects.
ln Vitro
MeTC7 (compound 5) has an IC50 value of 2.9 μM, indicating strong VDR inhibitory activity[1]. The VDR-Ligand-binding domain in Silico is disrupted by MeTC7[1]. In the ovarian cancer cell-line, MeTC7 (250 nM; 18 h) decreases the expressions of Importin-4 and RXRα[1]. MeTC7 (250 nM; 18 h) causes PARP1 cleavage and reduces the viability of ovarian cancer cells[1].
In vitro, MeTC7 demonstrates potent VDR inhibitory activity with an IC₅₀ of 2.9 μM. It suppresses the viability of cancer cell lines. The compound is used in cell-based assays to investigate its effects on VDR-mediated signaling and cancer cell proliferation. Its activity in cellular assays modulates immune checkpoint expression. The compound's antitumor effects have been demonstrated in vitro. It is supplied for research purposes only.
ln Vivo
MeTC7 (compound 5) (meTC7; 10 mg/kg) inhibits the growth of xenografts and spontaneous transgenic TH-MYCN neuroblastoma in vivo[1].
In vivo, MeTC7 reduces the growth of spontaneous transgenic TH-MYCN neuroblastoma and xenografts. These data demonstrate its in vivo antitumor efficacy. The compound is used in preclinical studies to evaluate its mechanism of action and potential as a therapeutic agent for cancer. Its ability to inhibit tumor growth in vivo supports its potential for cancer treatment. Specific dosing and efficacy data are not detailed in the available sources.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cell-based enzyme/receptor binding assays for MeTC7 typically involve competitive binding studies using purified VDR protein. Standard protocols include incubating varying concentrations of the test compound with the VDR ligand-binding domain and a radiolabeled vitamin D ligand (e.g., [³H]-1,25(OH)₂D₃) in appropriate buffer systems, followed by separation of bound from free ligand via filtration or charcoal adsorption. Binding affinity (IC₅₀ values) is calculated using nonlinear regression analysis. The compound shows an IC₅₀ of 2.9 μM. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) may also be employed.

Cell-based assays for MeTC7 typically utilize cancer cell lines to evaluate its effects on cell viability and VDR-mediated signaling. Standard protocols involve culturing cells in appropriate media at 37°C in 5% CO₂, followed by treatment with varying concentrations of the compound (typically 0.1-100 μM) for 24-72 hours. Cell viability is assessed using MTT, CCK-8, or CellTiter-Glo assays. The compound suppresses the viability of cancer cell lines. Its effects on immune checkpoint expression (e.g., PD-L1) can also be studied. IC₅₀ values are calculated from dose-response curves.

Experimental Results: decreased the growth of xenografts derived from ovarian cancer, medulloblastoma, and pancreatic cancer cells. Inhibited the growth of neuroblastoma cells and Xenografts. decreased MYCN expression and blocked the growth of TH-MYCN transgene-driven spontaneous neuroblastoma.
In vivo animal studies for MeTC7 typically involve xenograft models or transgenic tumor models in mice. Standard protocols include subcutaneous implantation of cancer cells or use of spontaneous transgenic TH-MYCN neuroblastoma models, followed by administration of the compound via oral gavage, intraperitoneal injection, or intravenous injection at doses ranging from 1-50 mg/kg body weight. Tumor volume is measured twice weekly using calipers, and body weight is monitored for toxicity assessment. At study termination, tumors are collected for histopathological examination and biomarker analysis. All animal studies must comply with institutional ethical guidelines.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties for MeTC7 are consistent with a small-molecule VDR antagonist. The compound has a molecular weight of 618.65 g/mol. For in vivo administration, formulations using suitable co-solvent systems may be employed. The compound should be stored as powder at -20°C for up to 3 years or in solvent at -80°C for 1 year. Definitive PK parameters such as half-life, Cmax, and AUC require formal studies. The compound is supplied for research purposes only.
