SC144 inhibits cell growth in a panel of human ovarian cancer cell lines with IC50s in a submicromolar range (IC50=OVCAR-8, OVCAR-5, OVCAR-3= 0.72, 0.49, 0.95 μM)[1]. The effectiveness of SC144 against NCI/ADR-RES (Paclitaxel- and Doxorubicin-resistant, IC50=0.43 M) and HEY (Cisplatin-resistant, IC50=0.88 μM) suggests an ability to overcome drug resistance in ovarian cancer[1]. OVCAR-8 and Caov-3 experience a significant increase in apoptosis when exposed to SC144 (2 μM; 24 hours) compared to normal kidney epithelial and normal endometrial cells[1]. SC144 (0.5-2 μM; 0-6 hours) substantially increases the phosphorylation of gp130 (S782) in both OVCAR-8 and Caov-3 cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner[1]. SC144 is cytotoxic to ovarian cancer cells via a mechanism involving the inhibition of gp130 activity, leading to the inactivation of Akt and Stat3 as well as the suppression of Stat3-regulated gene expression. Cell-cycle arrest, anti-angiogenesis, and apoptosis are consequent effects of SC144 treatment[1]. |
ln Vivo | SC144 (10 mg/kg; i.p.; daily for 58 days) inhibits the development of tumors in human ovarian cancer xenografts[1]. SC144 (100 mg/kg; p.o.; daily for 35 days) treatment shows the average tumor volume in mice 82% smaller than that in the control group[1]. |

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro) |
DMSO: ~10 mg/mL (~27.9 mM) H2O: <0.1 mg/mL |
Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 1 mg/mL (2.79 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 10.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
