Toyocamycin (Vengicide) is an adenosine analog produced by Streptomyces diastatochromogenes, acts as an XBP1 inhibitor. Toyocamycin blocks RNA synthesis and ribosome function, and induces apoptosis. Toyocamycin affects IRE1α-XBP1 pathway, and inhibits XBP1 mRNA cleavage with an IC50 value of 80 nM with affecting IRE1α auto-phosphorylation. Toyocamycin specifically inhibits CDK9 with an IC50 value of 79 nM.

体外研究(In Vitro)
Toyocamycin (0-0.3 μM; 4 h) inhibits ER stress-induced XBP1 mRNA splicing, and selectively inhibits the ER stress-induced activation of the IRE1α-XBP1 pathway.Toyocamycin (0-0.3 μM; 24 h) inhibits constitutive activation of XBP1 in MM cell lines.Toyocamycin (250 nM; 48 h) inhibits CDK9 enzymatic activity in colon cancer cell lines. Toyocamycin (0.05 nM-50 μM; 48 h and 72 h) doesn’t trigger immediate cytotoxicity against YB5 and HCT116 cells with cell viability above 50%, but results eradication of cancer cells 2 weeks later at 10 nM for 24 h treatment.Toyocamycin (0-100 nM; 24 or 48 h) induces apoptosis via mitochondrial pathway in PC-3 cells.Toyocamycin (60 nM; 0-48 h) promotes p38/ERK MAPK activation and regulates ROS-mediated apoptosis by inhibition of p38 on ERK MAPK.<
体内研究(In Vivo)
Toyocamycin (0.5 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg; i.p.; twice a week; 2 weeks) shows anti-tumor activity in a xenograft model with human multiple myeloma (MM) cells, while the anti-tumor effect enhanced by Bortezomib (HY-10227).Medlife has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.1 fwb
