IC50: 11.56 μM (IL6/STAT3 signaling pathway), 3.32 μM (MDA-MB-231), 4.72 μM (H4), 3.14 μM (HepG2)[1]
Angoline targets the IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway, specifically inhibiting STAT3 phosphorylation and downstream signaling. STAT3 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 3) is a transcription factor that is activated by phosphorylation in response to cytokines such as IL-6 and growth factors. Once phosphorylated, STAT3 dimerizes and translocates to the nucleus, where it regulates the expression of genes involved in cell proliferation, survival, angiogenesis, and immune evasion. Constitutive STAT3 activation is a hallmark of many cancers and is associated with poor prognosis. Angoline inhibits STAT3 phosphorylation (IC₅₀ = 11.56 μM), blocking its nuclear translocation and target gene expression. The compound is specific for the IL-6/STAT3 pathway. |

| ln Vitro |
The STAT3, STAT1, and NF-κB signaling pathways are inhibited by angoline (0-100 μM; 1 h), with IC50 values of 11.56, >100, and >100 μM, respectively [1]. The effects of angoline (0-100 μM; 2 h) on STAT3 phosphorylation [1]. Angoline (0-100 μM; 72 h) suppresses the proliferation of HepG2, H4, and MDA-MB-231 cells [1].
In vitro studies have demonstrated that Angoline is a potent and specific inhibitor of the IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway with an IC₅₀ of 11.56 μM. The compound inhibits STAT3 phosphorylation and its target gene expression. In cancer cell lines with constitutive STAT3 activation, Angoline treatment results in reduced cell proliferation and growth. The compound shows specificity for STAT3 over other STAT family members, minimizing off-target effects. Angoline has been used to study the role of STAT3 signaling in cancer cell survival, proliferation, and drug resistance. The compound's activity is concentration-dependent and reversible. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo activity data for Angoline is limited in the available literature, as the compound is primarily used as a research tool in cell-based studies. The compound's potent STAT3 inhibition (IC₅₀ = 11.56 μM) suggests it could have therapeutic potential in STAT3-driven cancers. However, comprehensive in vivo efficacy studies have not been extensively reported. Future studies may explore its effects in animal models of STAT3-dependent malignancies. The compound's specificity for the IL-6/STAT3 pathway makes it a promising candidate for further investigation.

| Enzyme Assay |
Cell-free biochemical assays for Angoline typically measure inhibition of STAT3 phosphorylation or STAT3-DNA binding. A standard protocol involves incubating recombinant STAT3 protein with varying concentrations of Angoline (0.1-100 μM) and assessing STAT3 phosphorylation using kinase assays with [γ-³²P]ATP or using phospho-specific antibodies in ELISA format. STAT3-DNA binding activity can be measured using electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) or ELISA-based DNA binding assays with STAT3-specific DNA consensus sequences. IC₅₀ values are determined from dose-response curves using nonlinear regression analysis. Assays are performed in triplicate with appropriate positive and negative controls.

Western Blot Analysis[1]
Cell Types: HepG2/STAT3 cell line Tested Tested Concentrations: 0, 1, 10, 30 and 100 μM Incubation Duration: 2 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Inhibited IL-6-induced phosphorylation of STAT3 in HepG2/STAT3 cells. Cell Proliferation Assay[1] Cell Types: MDA-MB-231, H4 and HepG2 cell lines Tested Tested Concentrations: 0-100 μM Incubation Duration: 72 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Inhibited proliferation of MDA-MB-231, H4 and HepG2 cells with IC50 values of 3.32, 4.72 and 3.14 μM, respectively. Cellular assays for Angoline typically use cancer cell lines with constitutive STAT3 activation. A standard protocol involves culturing cells (e.g., breast, prostate, or multiple myeloma cell lines) in 96-well plates, treating with Angoline at concentrations ranging from 1-100 μM for 24-72 hours. STAT3 phosphorylation is assessed by Western blotting using phospho-specific antibodies (pSTAT3-Tyr705). STAT3 target gene expression (e.g., Bcl-2, Mcl-1, Cyclin D1, VEGF) is measured by qPCR. Cell proliferation is assessed by MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays. Apoptosis is measured by caspase-3/7 activity or Annexin V staining. The compound's specificity for STAT3 over STAT1 and other STATs can be confirmed by Western blotting. |
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies with Angoline are limited, as the compound is primarily a research tool for in vitro applications. If conducted, a typical protocol might involve administration of Angoline to tumor-bearing mice by intraperitoneal or oral administration, followed by assessment of STAT3 phosphorylation and target gene expression in tumor tissues. Tumor growth inhibition would be monitored over 2-4 weeks. However, comprehensive in vivo efficacy studies have not been extensively reported for this compound. Future studies may explore its therapeutic potential in STAT3-driven cancers.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data for Angoline is limited, as the compound is primarily used in research settings. The compound's molecular weight is 379.41 g/mol. The compound's physicochemical properties suggest moderate lipophilicity. For in vivo applications, the compound would likely require formulation to enhance bioavailability. The compound is typically dissolved in DMSO for in vitro studies. Metabolism and clearance pathways have not been extensively characterized.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data specific to Angoline is limited, as the compound is a research chemical used primarily in in vitro settings. At effective concentrations (11.56 μM for STAT3 inhibition), the compound does not show significant cytotoxicity in most cell types. Higher concentrations may have off-target effects or cytotoxicity. As a STAT3 inhibitor, potential toxicity could arise from inhibition of STAT3 in tissues where the pathway is important for normal function. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound.
