Bioactivity | TT-232 (CAP-232), a somatostatin derivative, is a peptide SSTR1/SSTR4 agonist. TT-232 inhibits cancer cell proliferation and induces apoptosis. TT-232 is also a broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory and analgesic agent[1][2][4]. | ||||||
Invitro | TT-232 (10 μg/mL, 48 h) induces apoptosis in human colon (HT-29 and SW620), pancreatic (818), leukemia (K-562), melanoma (WM 938/B, M-1 and EP) and lymphoma (HT-58) tumor cell lines[1].TT-232 (20-30 μg/mL, 24 h) shows antiproliferative effect on various human tumor cell lines[2]. Cell Viability Assay[2] Cell Line: | ||||||
In Vivo | TT-232 (15-750 μg/kg/day, twice a day) inhibits tumor growth in mice transplanted with Colon 26 cell[2].TT-232 (0.6 or 15 μg/kg s.c or i.p.) shows antitumor effect on P-388 rodent lymphocytic leukemia tumor mice[3].TT-232 (7.5-20 μg/kg, i.v.) inhibits Carrageenin-induced paw oedema in rats[4].
