| Targets |
YAP-TEAD complex. Super-TDU (1-31) TFA is an inhibitor of the YAP-TEAD interaction. By binding to YAP, it prevents the association of YAP with the TEAD transcription factor, thereby blocking the transcriptional activity of the Hippo pathway. This inhibition suppresses cell proliferation and induces apoptosis in YAP-dependent cancers.

| ln Vitro |
Super-TDU(1-31) TFA (50 nM; 24-72 hours) can significantly reduce the increase in cell viability in Huh-7 or LM3 cell proliferation that is produced by ACTN1 [1].
Super-TDU (1-31) TFA (50 nM, 24-72 h) largely compromises ACTN1-induced cell viability increases in liver cancer cell lines, including Huh-7 and LM3 cells. By disrupting YAP-TEAD complex formation, it inhibits the transcription of YAP target genes involved in cell proliferation and survival. The peptide demonstrates selective inhibitory activity against YAP-dependent cancer cell proliferation. |
| ln Vivo |
Super-TDU (1-31) TFA shows potent anti-tumor activity in a gastric cancer mouse model, inhibiting tumor growth. Administration of Super-TDU TFA leads to suppression of tumor progression and reduced tumor volume. The in vivo efficacy supports the therapeutic potential of targeting the YAP-TEAD complex with peptide inhibitors for the treatment of cancers driven by hyperactive Hippo signaling.

| Enzyme Assay |
YAP-TEAD binding inhibition assay (SPR or ELISA): Recombinant YAP protein is immobilized on a sensor chip or ELISA plate. Increasing concentrations of Super-TDU (1-31) TFA (0-1000 nM) are pre-incubated with TEAD protein. The mixture is injected, and the amount of bound TEAD is detected by specific antibodies. Alternatively, a fluorescence polarization assay using labeled TEAD peptide and purified YAP can be used.

Cell Viability Assay[2]
Cell Types: Liver cancer cell lines of human, including Huh-7, LM3 cells Tested Concentrations: 50 nM Incubation Duration: 24, 48 and 72 h Experimental Results: Could largely compromise the increased cell viability induced by ACTN1. Cell viability assay: Human liver cancer cells (Huh-7 or LM3) are seeded in 96-well plates (5,000 cells/well) and treated with Super-TDU (1-31) TFA at concentrations of 0-500 nM for 24-72 h. Cell viability is assessed using CCK-8 or MTT assay. For mechanism studies, cells are treated with 50 nM peptide for 48 h, and YAP target gene expression (CTGF, CYR61, ANKRD1) is measured by qRT-PCR. |
| Animal Protocol |
Gastric cancer xenograft model: Female BALB/c nude mice (6-8 weeks old) are subcutaneously implanted with gastric cancer cells (5×10⁶ cells/mouse). When tumors reach ~100 mm3, mice are randomized into groups (n=6-8). Super-TDU (1-31) TFA is administered via intratumoral injection or intraperitoneally at doses of 5-20 mg/kg, every other day for 2-3 weeks. Tumor volume is measured every 3 days using calipers. TUNEL and Ki-67 staining are performed on tumor sections.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data for Super-TDU (1-31) TFA are limited. As a 31-amino acid peptide (MW 3355.5, TFA salt), it has poor oral bioavailability and a short plasma half-life (typically minutes) due to proteolytic degradation. It is administered via intratumoral or intraperitoneal injection for in vivo studies. The powder should be stored at -20degC, sealed and away from light and moisture.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity data for Super-TDU (1-31) TFA are limited. As a peptide disrupting the YAP-TEAD interaction, it is intended for research use only and not for human therapeutic applications. In mouse xenograft models at effective doses (5-20 mg/kg, every other day), no significant body weight loss or gross toxicity has been reported. Standard safety precautions should be followed.

Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).
