XAV-939
XAV-939 is a small-molecule inhibitor of tankyrase 1/2 with IC50 values of 4 and 11 nM, respectively [1].
XAV-939 was screened out as an inhibitor of Wnt/β-catenin pathway. In HEK293 cells, XAV-939 significantly inhibited the Wnt3a-stimulated STF activity and β-catenin accumulation. In SW480 cells, XAV-939 also inhibited STF activity and increased β-catenin phosphorylation. XAV-939 was demonstrated to stabilize the axin levels through inhibiting tankyrases and subsequently inhibit the Wnt signaling. It tightly bound to the catalytic domains of tankyrase 1 and tankyrase 2 with Kd values of 99 and 93 nM, respectively. In addition, XAV-939 significantly inhibited colony formation of β-catenin-dependent DLD-1 cells but not β-catenin-independent RKO cells [1].

Cell experiment: [1] | |
Cell lines |
HCT116 cells |
Preparation method |
The solubility of this compound in DMSO is >10 mM. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37°C for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while. Stock solution can be stored below -20°C for several months. |
Reaction Conditions |
20 μM, 24 hours |
Applications |
HCT116 cells were treated with XAV-939, then stained with PI and subjected to ?ow cytometric analysis or lysed and subjected to immunoblot analysis. The results showed that the number of cells arrest in G1 phase was 71.01%, as compared with the 45.54% of untreated control samples. Western blot analysis revealed that XAV-939 increased the level of AXIN and inhibited the expression of β-catenin. |

Mice |
Dosage form |
Intraperitoneal injection, 2.5 mg/kg, four times a day |
Applications |
Treatment of bleomycin challenged mice with XAV-939 reduced dermal thickening by 50% compared with sham-treated, bleomycin challenged mice. The number of myo?broblasts and the hydroxyproline content were also signi?cantly decreased in mice treated with XAV-939. |
Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
