Product Description
TN-16 (TN16; NSC-239274) is a potent tubulin inhibitor (antitubulin/antimitotic agent) with anticancer activity. With an IC50 of 0.4-1.7 µM, it initiates tubulin polymerization.
TN-16 is a synthetic inhibitor of microtubule polymerization which binds to the colchicine site. It inhibits alkylation of tubulin. TN-16 blocks the assembly and promotes the dissociation of microtubules. It prevents the stabilization of microtubules in taxol-treated cells and blocks the cell cycle in M-phase. TN-16 has an IC50 of 0.4-1.7 μM.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The primary target of TN-16 is tubulin. It binds to the colchicine site on tubulin, inhibiting the polymerization of microtubules. TN-16 blocks the assembly and promotes the dissociation of microtubules. By disrupting microtubule dynamics, TN-16 prevents the stabilization of microtubules and blocks the cell cycle in M-phase.
ln Vitro
In vitro, TN-16 is a synthetic inhibitor of microtubule polymerization with an IC50 of 0.4-1.7 μM. It binds to the colchicine site on tubulin and inhibits alkylation of tubulin. TN-16 blocks the assembly and promotes the dissociation of microtubules. It causes metaphase arrest in renal cell carcinoma cells.
ln Vivo
In vivo, TN-16 can be used in combination with other inhibitors to improve the efficiency of artificial chromosome transfer to recipient cells. However, specific in vivo efficacy data from animal models are limited in the available literature.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme or receptor binding assays for TN-16 involve studying its binding to tubulin. The assay uses purified tubulin and measures the inhibition of microtubule polymerization spectrophotometrically. The compound is incubated with tubulin at varying concentrations to determine the IC50 (0.4-1.7 μM). Competition binding assays with [3H]colchicine can be used to confirm binding to the colchicine site.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for TN-16 are performed using various cancer cell lines. Cells are treated with the compound, and cell cycle analysis is performed using flow cytometry. The compound's ability to cause metaphase arrest is assessed. Cell viability and proliferation are measured using standard assays.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for TN-16 are limited. The compound can be used in combination with other inhibitors to improve the efficiency of artificial chromosome transfer to recipient cells. However, specific detailed protocols for in vivo studies are not well-documented.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of TN-16 indicate that it has a molecular weight of 306.36 and a molecular formula of C19H18N2O2. The CAS number is 33016-12-5. The IUPAC name is 5-benzyl-3-(1-(phenylamino)ethylidene)pyrrolidine-2,4-dione. It has a melting point of 182-185°C. It is a solid with a purity of ≥95%.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicology (toxicology) data for TN-16 are characteristic of a research compound. As a microtubule polymerization inhibitor, its safety profile is an important consideration. The compound is generally well-tolerated at effective doses in preclinical models. However, its long-term safety profile requires further evaluation.
