General description
A hydrazinecarbothioamide derived intramimic that acts as an agonist of mammalian Diaphanous (mDia)-related formins and disrupts diaphanous inhibitory domain (DID) and diaphanous autoregulatory domain (DAD) interaction (IC50 = 140 nM). Shown to trigger actin assembly and stabilize microtubules in a dose -dependent manner and at levels similar to those induced by Taxol. Induces caspase-3 activation and apoptosis in NIH 3T3 and SW480 cells(~ 100 µM) and slows the growth of SW480 xenograft tumors in mice (~ 25 mg/kg). Shown to induce LacZ expression, producing b-gal activity that is comparable to effects seen with cytochalasin D treatment.

Although the cancer cell cytoskeleton is a clinically validated target, few new strategies have emerged for selectively targeting cell division by modulating the cytoskeletal structure, particularly ways that could avoid the cardiotoxic and neurotoxic effects of current agents such as

Formins are multidomain proteins that regulate numerous cytoskeleton-dependent cellular processes. These effects are mediated by the presence of two regions of homology, formin homology 1 and FH2. The diaphanous-related formins (DRFs) are distinguished by the presence of interacting N- and
