Bioactivity | STAT3-IN-11 (7a) is a selective STAT3 inhibitor that inhibits the phosphorylation of STAT3 at site pTyr705. STAT3-IN-11 inhibits the phosphorylation of downstream genes (Survivin and Mcl-1) without affecting its upstream tyrosine kinases (Src and JAK2) levels and p-STAT1 expression. STAT3-IN-11 can induce cancer cell apoptosis, which is potential for the discovery of effective STAT3 inhibitors and antitumor agents against cancers[1]. | ||||||||||||

Invitro | STAT3-IN-11 (20 μM, 48 h) has 97.86% inhibitory effect on MDA-MB-231 cells[1].STAT3-IN-11 (0-30 μM, 48 h) inhibits several cancer cells with IC50 values of 6.01 μM (MDA-MB-231), 7.02μM (HepG2, A549), and normal human cells with IC50 values of 26.54 μM (MDA-MB-10A), 26.69 μM (PBMCs), 12.52 μM (HFL-1) [1].STAT3-IN-11 (2.5-10 μM, 6 h) inhibits the phosphorylation of STAT3 (stimulated by IL-6 in MDA-MB-231) at site pTyr705 in a dose-dependent manner[1].STAT3-IN-11 (2.5-10 μM, 6 h) inhibits the expression of the downstream gene (Survivin and Mcl-1) of STAT3 in a concentration-dependent manner[1].STAT3-IN-11 (2.5-10 μM, 6 h) has no effects on the typical upstream kinases of STAT3 such as p-JAK2 and p-Src and the phosphorylation of STAT1 (a STAT isoform) [1].STAT3-IN-11 (2.5-10 μM, 48 h) can induce cell apoptosis in a dose-manner[1].
