Bioactivity | Olomoucine is an ATP competitive inhibitor of CDKs. Olomoucine is a purine (HY-34431) derivative and inhibits CDC2/cyclin B, Cdk2/cyclin A, Cdk2/cyclin E (both IC50=7 µM), CDK/p35 kinase (IC50=3 µM) and ERK1/p44 MAP kinase (IC50=25 µM)[1][2]. Olomoucine regulates cell cycle and shows anti-melanin tumor activity[3][4]. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | Olomoucine inhibits CDK2 and CDC2 kinases with IC50 of 7 μM (CDC2/cyclin B), 7 μM (CDK2/cyclin A), 7 μM (CDK2/cyclin E), 3 Μm (CDK5/p35), and 25μM (ERK1/p44 MAPK), respectively[1].Olomoucine (0, 5, 10, 15, and 25 μM) is a competitive inhibitor for ATP and as a non-competitive inhibitor for histone H[1].Olomoucine (0-1000 μM) inhibits DNA synthesis in interleukin-2-stimulated T lymphocytes (CTLL-2 cells) and triggers a Gl arrest similar to interleukin-2 deprivation[2].Olomoucine (0-100 μM) inhibits Gl/S transition of non-small cell lung cancer cell line MB65 cells[2].Olomoucine (0-150 μM) inhibits prophase/metaphase transition of Rdditapes oocytes[2].Olomoucine inhibits tumor cells survival with IC50s of 32.35 μM (dog melanoma), 42.15 μM (mouse B16 melanoma), 82.30 μM (human melanoma), respectively[3]. | ||||||||||||
In Vivo | Olomoucine (8 mg/kg; i.v.; once daily; 7 d) induces apoptosis in tumor cells on the 3rd day after treatment without side effects[3].Cassette dosing was found to overestimate the AUC while underestimating the Cmax compared with single dosing administration[4].Cassette dosing pharmacokinetics for olomoucine[4] Administration | ||||||||||||
