Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | BRD4 is selectively inhibited by FL-411. Through TR-FRET analysis, FL-411's binding affinity to the first and second bromodomains of BRD2(1), BRD4(1), and BRD4(2) was determined. The IC50 values were 24.60±0.70 μM, 0.47±0.02 μM, and 0.93±0.05 μM, respectively. FL-411 exhibited low toxicity to MCF10A cells and good BRD4(1) inhibitory activity (IC50=0.43±0.09 μM), anti-proliferative activity (MCF-7, IC50=1.62±0.06 μM; MDA-MB-231, IC50=3.27±0.14 μM), and autophagic activity (42.29% in MCF-7 cells). By inhibiting the BRD4-AMPK interaction, FL-411 causes ATG5-dependent autophagy-related cell death (ACD) in breast cancer cells by triggering the AMPK-mTOR-ULK1-regulated autophagy pathway [1]. |
| ln Vivo | Two cell line models of breast tumors, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231, were employed as xenograft models to assess FL-411's in vivo anticancer efficacy. Three distinct FL-411 dosages were used in in vivo experiments: 25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, and 100 mg/kg. FL-411 demonstrated a noteworthy and dose-dependent suppression of tumor growth in every model tested; in the MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell models, this inhibition was found to be 80% and 76%, respectively. In every dosage group, a noteworthy decrease in tumor weight was noted (p<0.001). Body weight was not significantly affected by FL-411 in any of the treatment groups. Tumor tissues from control and FL-411-treated mice were processed for LC3 and Ki-67 immunization Histochemical analysis in order to investigate if FL-411-mediated tumor growth suppression in vivo is linked to decreased cell proliferation and increased autophagy-related cell death. enhanced LC3 expression (p<0.001) indicated enhanced autophagy levels following FL-411 treatment, which also markedly decreased the frequency of Ki-67 (p<0.001) positive cells [1]. |

Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) | DMSO : ~5.4 mg/mL (~15.82 mM) |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: 1.25 mg/mL (3.66 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 12.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: 1.25 mg/mL (3.66 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 12.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
