SGI-1027 Chemische Eigenschaften,Einsatz,Produktion Methoden
Verwenden
SGI-1027 is a quinoline derivative and a potent inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase (DNMT). SGI-1027 can be used as a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of cancer and other diseases and also as a research tool to investigate the role of DNMTs in epigenetic events.
Biochem/physiol Actions
SGI-1027 is a DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitor with IC50 values of 6-13 μM for DNMT3B, DNMT3A and DNMT1. SGI-1027 directly inhibits DNMT activity by competing with the cofactor, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) in the methylation reaction. SGI-1027 treatment of cancer cell lines induced degradation of DNMT1, but not DNMT3A or DNMT3B, and in RKO cells caused re-expression of the silenced tumor supressor genes p16, MLH1 and TIMP3.
