Picropodophyllin (PPP)

Synonyms: AXL1717

Picropodophyllin (PPP, AXL1717) is a IGF-1R inhibitor with IC50 of 1 nM. It displays selectivity for IGF-1R and does not coinhibit tyrosine phosphorylation the IR, or of a selected panel of receptors less related to IGF-IR(FGF-R, PDGF-R, OR EGF-R). Picropodophyllin (PPP) induces apoptosis with antineoplastic activity.

Biological Activity

Description Picropodophyllin (PPP, AXL1717) is a IGF-1R inhibitor with IC50 of 1 nM. It displays selectivity for IGF-1R and does not coinhibit tyrosine phosphorylation the IR, or of a selected panel of receptors less related to IGF-IR(FGF-R, PDGF-R, OR EGF-R). Picropodophyllin (PPP) induces apoptosis with antineoplastic activity.
Targets
IGF-1R [1]
(Cell-free assay)
1 nM
In vitro
In vitro

In intact cells, PPP efficiently inhibits IGF-1-stimulated IGF-1R, Akt (Ser 473) and Erk1/2 phosphorylation. Picropodophyllin specifically inhibits cell growth, and induces apoptosis in cultured IGF-1R-positive tumor cells. [1] Picropodophyllin synergistically sensitizes HMCL, primary human MM and murine 5T33MM cells to ABT-737 and ABT-199 by further decreasing cell viability and enhancing apoptosis. [3] Picropodophyllin synergistically suppress the proliferation and motility of hepatocellular carcinoma cells. [4]

Kinase Assay In vitro tyrosine kinase assays.
Assay of IGF-1R-catalyzed substrate phosphorylation of pTG, using a 96-well plate tyrosine kinase assay kit, is performed. We use recombinant epidermal growth factor receptor, immunoprecipitated IR from HEPG2, immunoprecipitated IGF-1R from P6 cells, and IGF-1R immunodepleted supernatant from P6 (representing “non-IGF-1R tyrosine kinases”). After 30-min treatment of the receptors with the desired compounds in the kinase buffer [50 mM HEPES buffer (pH 7.4), 20 mM MgCl2, 0.1 MnCl2, and 0.2 Na3VO4], the kinase reaction is activated by addition of ATP. The phosphorylated polymer substrate is probed with a phosphotyrosine-specific monoclonal antibody conjugated to horseradish peroxidase, clone PT-66. Color is developed with horseradish peroxidase chromogenic substrate O-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride and quantitated by spectrophotometry (ELISA reader). IGF-1R tyrosine autophosphorylation is analyzed by a sandwich ELISA assay. Briefly, 96-well plates are coated overnight at 4°C with 1 μg/well of an antibody to IGF-1R β-subunit. The plates are blocked with 1% BSA in PBS Tween for 1 h, and then 80 μg/well of total protein lysate from the P6 cell line is added. As a negative control we use total protein lysate from the R- cell line. The investigated compounds are added in tyrosine kinase buffer without ATP at room temperature for 30 min before kinase activation with ATP. Kinase assay is performed using the Sigma kit (see above). After spectrophotometry the IC50 values of inhibitors are determined using the REGRESSION function of Statistica program.
Cell Research Cell lines Melanoma cells (FM 55, SK-MEL-28, SK-MEL-5, C8161, DFB, DFW and AA), sarcoma cells (RD-ES), breast carcinoma cells (MCF 7), prostate carcinoma cells (PC3), hepatoma cells (HepG2) and embryonic mouse fibroblasts (P6 and R-)
Concentrations ~15 μM
Incubation Time 48 hours
Method

The determinations are performed using the Cell proliferation kit II, which is based on colorimetric change of the yellow tetrazolium salt 2,3-bis[2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl]-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide inner salt in orange formazan dye by the respiratory chain of viable cell. All of the standards and experiments are performed in triplicates.

In SCID mice xenografted with human ES-1, BE, and PC3, Picropodophyllin (20 mg/kg/12 h, i.p.) causes complete tumor regression. [1] In the 5T33MM mouse model, Picropodophyllin also shows a marked antitumor activity, and causes a significant increase in survival. [2]

Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1:
I am currently setting the conditions for in vivo experiments, how should I reconstitute the drug?

Answer:
Other than DMSO:vegetable oil 10:1 (v/v) cited from reference. We tested another formulation: 4% DMSO+corn oil. S7668 Picropodophyllin (PPP) can be dissolved in it at 5 mg/ml clearly. But after stayed for about 20-30 min, the two phase would separate and wouldn't get together again. So if you are going to use this formulation, please prepare the fresh solution just before use.
