Copper (II)-chelating malonohydrazide derivative with in vitro and in vivo anticancer efficacy via reactive oxygen species (ROS) & apoptosis induction.
Elesclomol (STA-4783) is a copper (II)-chelating malonohydrazide derivative that exerts its in vitro and in vivo anticancer efficacy via reactive oxygen species (ROS)/oxidative stress & apoptosis induction in a Cu(II)-dependent manner (GI50 = 12 nM without vs. 129 nM with Cu2+ removal by TRIEN in K562 culture; typical conc. range 0.1-2 μM in cultures). Elesclomol chelates extracellular Cu(II) for mitochondria delivery, where upon Cu2+ reduction (to Cu+) & ROS generation, copper-free elesclomol then exits cells for continual Cu(II) shuttling and accumulation in mitochondria. In addition to Cu2+, elesclomol can also chelate Co2+ and Ni2+, but not Fe3+ or Zn2+.

In order to survive under conditions of low oxygen, cancer cells can undergo a metabolic switch to glycolysis and suppress mitochondrial respiration in order to reduce oxygen consumption and prevent excessive amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Nucleus accumbens-1
Elesclomol is an investigational drug that exerts potent anticancer activity through the elevation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and is currently under clinical evaluation as a novel anticancer therapeutic. Here we report the first description of selective mitochondrial ROS
MTH1 helps prevent misincorporation of ROS-damaged dNTPs into genomic DNA; however, there is little understanding of how MTH1 itself is regulated. Here, we report that MTH1 is regulated by polyubiquitination mediated by the E3 ligase Skp2. In melanoma cells, MTH1

A new fluorescence probe was developed for HClO detection under physiological conditions, which displayed fast response (t1/2 < 30 s) and large off-on fluorescence increase (>1000-fold) toward HClO with high sensitivity and selectivity. The probe was successfully applied for the

Elesclomol is an anticancer drug that is currently undergoing clinical trials. Elesclomol forms a strong 1:1 complex with Cu(II) and may exert its anticancer activity through the induction of oxidative stress and/or its ability to transport copper into the cell.
