Description

Cucurbitacin-I (Elatericin B, JSI 124, NSC 521777), a natural cell-permeable triterpenoid isolated from Cucurbitaceae, is a novel selective inhibitor of JAK2/STAT3.

Targets
JAK2 [1] STAT3 [1]

In vitro

Cucurbitacin-I (Elatericin B, JSI 124, NSC 521777) can efficiently inhibit the proliferation of GBM cells by blocking phosphorylation of STAT3, which in turn lead to the downregulation of antiapoptotic gene products and promote apoptosis. In addition, JSI-124 induced G2/M phase arrest in GBM via downregulation of cyclin B1 and cdc2 expression.<sup><a class="sref" href="#s_ref">[1]</a></sup> <sup><a class="sref" href="#s_ref">[2]</a></sup><sup><a class="sref" href="#s_ref">[3]</a></sup>

Cell Research Cell lines U251 and A172 cells
Concentrations 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200, 400 and 1000 nM
Incubation Time 24, 48 and 72 h
Method

Cucurbitacin I (JSI-124) induces proliferation inhibition and morphological transformation of GBM Cells. U251 cells (5 x 103/100 μl) and A127 cells(5 x 103/100 μl) were seeded in 96-well plates in triplicate, incubated overnight, treated with different concentrations of JSI-124 for 24, 48 and 72 h, then subjected to CCK-8 assay at various times to analyze proliferation of cells. Cucurbitacin I (JSI-124) dose-and time-dependently inhibited the proliferation of U251 and A172 cells.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
