Biological Activity

Description 3PO (3-(3-pyridinyl)-1-(4-pyridinyl)-2-propen-1-one) is a small-molecule inhibitor of PFKFB3 with an IC50 of 22.9 μM for recombinant human PFKFB3 protein and does not inhibit PFK-1 activity. It suppresses glucose uptake, and decreases the intracellular concentration of Fru-2,6-BP, lactate, ATP, NAD+, and NADH.
Targets
PFKFB3 [2]
22.9 μM
In vitro 3PO is an inhibitor of the PFKFB3 isozyme primarily through competition with Fru-6-P and does not inhibit purified PFK-1 activity. 3PO markedly attenuates the proliferation of several human malignant hematopoietic and adenocarcinoma cell lines (IC50, 1.4-24 μmol/L) and is selectively cytostatic to ras-transformed human bronchial epithelial cells relative to normal human bronchial epithelial cells. 3PO can cause G2-M phase arrest[1].
In vivo i.p. administration of 3PO (0.07 mg/g) to tumor-bearing mice markedly reduces the intracellular concentration of Fru-2,6-BP, glucose uptake, and growth of established tumors in vivo. It suppresses tumorigenic growth of breast adenocarcinoma, leukemia, and lung adenocarcinoma cells in vivo[1]. The PK properties of 3PO are examined in C57Bl/6 mice intravenously administered 3PO: clearance CL=2312 mL/min/kg, T1/2=0.3 hr, Cmax=113 ng/ml, AUC0-inf=36 ng/hr/ml. 3PO is reported to have potent activity against a highly relevant mouse model of leukemia[2].

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:

[1]
  • Cell lines

    Jurkat cells

  • Concentrations

    10 μmol/L

  • Incubation Time

    0, 4, 8, 16, 24, or 36 h

  • Method
