| Targets |
SPOP (speckle-type POZ protein), the substrate adaptor for the CUL3-RBX1 E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. SPOP-IN-6b dihydrochloride inhibits SPOP activity, which leads to an increase in its natural substrate proteins, including the tumor suppressors PTEN and DUSP7. This inhibition reverses the oncogenic degradation of these suppressors.

| ln Vitro |
For A498, Caki-2, Ketr-3, 769-P, 0S-RC-2, and 786-0 cells, SPOP-IN-6b dihydrochloride exhibits IC50s of 2-10.2 μM[1]. By suppressing SPOP activity, SPOP-IN-6b(0.1 -3.0 μM; 10 hours) dihydrochloride can raise the amount of DUSP7 and PTEN, two cancer substrate proteins that are suppressed[1].
In vitro, SPOP-IN-6b dihydrochloride shows potent growth-inhibitory effects on various renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cell lines, including A498, Caki-2, 786-0, and OS-RC-2, with IC50 values ranging from 2 to 10.2 uM. At concentrations of 0.1-3.0 uM for 10 hours, it suppresses SPOP activity, leading to a significant increase in PTEN and DUSP7 protein levels. This results in the suppression of cancer cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis. |
| ln Vivo |
SPOP-IN-6b (40–80 mg/kg; daily injection into the peritoneum; 25 days; naked mice) By inhibiting SPOP, dihydrochloride can decrease the growth of tumors[1].
In vivo, SPOP-IN-6b dihydrochloride demonstrates significant antitumor activity. In a nude mouse xenograft model with A498 human renal cancer cells, daily intraperitoneal injection of the compound at doses of 40-80 mg/kg for 25 days effectively slows down tumor growth. This tumor growth inhibition is attributed to the on-target suppression of SPOP activity and the subsequent restoration of tumor suppressor function. |
| Enzyme Assay |
A non-cellular biochemical assay using purified recombinant SPOP protein and its substrate peptide (e.g., PTEN) is used to confirm direct binding. SPOP protein is incubated with a fluorescence-labeled PTEN peptide. Increasing concentrations of SPOP-IN-6b (0-100 uM) are added, and the SPOP-substrate interaction is measured by fluorescence polarization. The IC50 is calculated by fitting the inhibition curve with a non-linear regression model.
|
| Cell Assay |
Human renal cancer cells (e.g., A498 or 786-0) are seeded in 96-well plates (5,000-10,000 cells/well). After 24 hours, cells are treated with increasing concentrations of SPOP-IN-6b dihydrochloride (0-100 uM) for 48-72 hours. Cell viability is assessed using a CCK-8 or MTT assay. For mechanism studies, cells are treated with 1-3 uM of the compound for 10 hours, and cell lysates are analyzed by Western blot for PTEN and DUSP7 expression.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Female BALB/c nude mice (6-8 weeks old) are subcutaneously injected with A498 or 786-0 cells (5 × 10⁶ cells/mouse) to establish a xenograft model. Once tumors reach a volume of ~100 mm3, mice are randomized into groups (n=6-8) and receive daily intraperitoneal injections of SPOP-IN-6b dihydrochloride at doses of 40-80 mg/kg for 25 days. Tumor volume is measured every 3 days using calipers, and tumor weight is recorded at the end of the study.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
SPOP-IN-6b dihydrochloride is a small molecule (MW: 573.51) that is typically formulated in a vehicle containing DMSO, PEG300, and saline for intraperitoneal injection. When administered at 40-80 mg/kg in mice, plasma concentrations reach levels sufficient to inhibit SPOP activity in the tumor. Detailed PK parameters like half-life and Cmax are not published but are consistent with typical small molecule inhibitors.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
As a research compound, detailed human toxicity data is not available. In preclinical mouse models, daily intraperitoneal administration of SPOP-IN-6b dihydrochloride at doses up to 80 mg/kg for 25 days was reported to be generally tolerated without significant body weight loss or major signs of acute toxicity. However, potential off-target effects on other POZ-domain proteins cannot be excluded. This product is intended for laboratory research only.

| Additional Infomation |
SPOP-IN-6b dihydrochloride is a research tool and has not been approved for clinical use. It is a valuable probe for investigating the SPOP-CUL3 ubiquitin ligase axis and the role of SPOP mutations in cancer. While SPOP is an oncogenic target in some cancers, it can act as a tumor suppressor in others. This compound helps elucidate these context-dependent functions. It should be stored at -20degC as a powder and is stable for at least one year.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (3.63 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 +5% Tween-80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 + to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
