Product Description
Glabrescione B is the first compound to bind to the Hedgehog (Hh) regulator Gli1 and impair its activity by interfering with Gli1-DNA interactions. Glabrescione B suppresses the growth of Hedgehog-dependent tumor cells and inhibits the self-renewal and cloning abilities of tumor-derived stem cells.
Glabrescione B is the first natural isoflavone that binds to Gli1, a key Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway modulator. It impairs Gli1 activity by disrupting Gli1-DNA interaction, thereby inhibiting tumor cell proliferation and stem cell self-renewal.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Gli1-DNA Interaction[1]
Gli1 (a downstream effector of the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway). By binding to Gli1, Glabrescione B prevents its interaction with DNA, thus suppressing Gli1-mediated transcription.
ln Vitro
Glabrescione B (5 μM; 24-72 hours) suppresses the proliferation of Gli-dependent basal cell carcinoma[2]. Glabrescione B (1-10 μM; 24-48 hours) reduces Gli1 mRNA expression levels[2].
Glabrescione B (1-10 uM; 24-48 h) decreases Gli1 mRNA expression levels in ASZ001 basal cell carcinoma (BCC) cells. At 5 uM (24-72 h), it inhibits the growth of Gli-dependent BCC cells and suppresses the self-renewal and clonogenic abilities of tumor-derived stem cells.
ln Vivo
In female NOD/SCID mice bearing ASZ001 BCC allografts, Glabrescione B (100 micromol/kg; i.p.; every other day for 18 days) resulted in a significant reduction of tumor growth and also lowered Gli1 mRNA expression levels in the tumor tissue.
Enzyme Assay
Cell-free Gli1-DNA interaction assays are performed by incubating recombinant Gli1 protein with a biotinylated DNA probe containing the Gli1 binding consensus sequence. Glabrescione B is added at increasing concentrations (0.01-100 uM) to the reaction mix. The amount of Gli1 bound to the DNA is quantified by a streptavidin-based ELISA or AlphaScreen assay after a 30-60 min incubation at room temperature.
Cell Assay
Cell Proliferation Assay [1]
Cell Types: ASZ001 BCC cells
Tested Concentrations: 5 μM
Incubation Duration: 24-72 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: Basal cell carcinoma cell proliferation was impaired.

Western Blot Analysis[1]
Cell Types: ASZ001 BCC cells
Tested Concentrations: 1-10 μM
Incubation Duration: 24-48 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: Gli1 mRNA expression levels was decreased.
ASZ001 murine basal cell carcinoma cells are cultured in 96-well plates and treated with Glabrescione B at various concentrations (1-10 uM) for 24-72 hours. Cell proliferation is assessed by MTT or BrdU incorporation assay. For Gli1 mRNA expression analysis, cells are treated with Glabrescione B (1-10 uM; 24-48 h), then total RNA is extracted and Gli1 mRNA levels are quantified by qRT-PCR normalized to GAPDH.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Female NOD/SCID (severe combined immunodeficient) mouse (ASZ001 BCC allografts)[2]
Doses: 100 μmol/kg
Route of Administration: Ip; every second day for 18 days
Experimental Results: A significant reduction of tumor growth as well as Gli1 mRNA levels was observed.
Female NOD/SCID mice are subcutaneously inoculated with ASZ001 BCC cells. Once tumors reach an appropriate size, Glabrescione B (100 micromol/kg) is administered via intraperitoneal injection every other day for 18 days. Tumor volumes are measured with calipers every 2-3 days. At the end of the study, tumors are excised for Gli1 mRNA quantification by qRT-PCR. Plasma and tumor drug concentrations can be analyzed by LC-MS/MS.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Glabrescione B has a molecular weight of 450.53 (C27H30O6) and is soluble in DMSO. It is typically administered by intraperitoneal injection in vivo. Pharmacokinetic parameters such as oral bioavailability, plasma half-life (t1/2), and tissue distribution have not been characterized in detail. The compound can be formulated using 5% DMSO + 30% PEG300 + 5% Tween 80 + 60% ddH2O for injection.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No specific toxicity data are reported for Glabrescione B in the literature. As a natural product-based Gli1 inhibitor, its safety profile is not fully characterized. In preclinical studies, at the reported dose of 100 micromol/kg, no overt signs of toxicity were observed; however, comprehensive toxicological assessments, including acute and repeat-dose toxicity studies, have not been published.

Additional Infomation
Glabrescione B is a methoxyisoflavone.
Other information: Glabrescione B is a research-grade natural isoflavone, not an FDA-approved drug. It is the first compound described to directly bind to Gli1 and interfere with its DNA-binding ability. It has been investigated as a potential therapeutic candidate for Hedgehog-driven cancers, including basal cell carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Purity ≥98%, CAS# 65893-94-9.
