| Bioactivity | Inecalcitol (TX 522), a unique vitamin D3 analog, is an orally active vitamin D receptor (VDR) agonist with a Kd of 0.53 nM. Inecalcitol can induce cell apoptosis and has potent anticancer activities[1][2][3][4]. |
| Invitro | Inecalcitol (0.1-10 nM; 48 hours) treatment of LNCaP cells results in decreased expression of both protein and mRNA of Pim-1 in a dose-dependent manner. Inecalcitol (0.1-10 nM; 48 hours) also decreases ETV1 expression levels in a dose-dependent manner[1].Inecalcitol (10-14 days) inhibits the growth of LNCaP and HL-60 cells with ED50 values of 4.0 nM and 0.28 nM, respectively[1].
