CCG-100602 aids in preventing fibrosis around the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).[1]
CCG-100602 is a CCG-1423 analog with significantly less cytotoxicity (0/14% WST-1 inhibition by 10/100 μM CCG-100602 vs. 44% by 10 μM CCG-1423) and similar efficacy against Rho/MKL1/SRF pathway-mediated transcription (by 78% with 100 μM CCG-100602 vs. 74% with 10 μM CCG-1423; IC50 = 9.8 μM/CCG-100602 vs. 1.5 μM/CCG-1423; by PC-3 SRE-luciferase assay), albeit at a reduced potency. CCG-100602 reduces the stiffening of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) derived aortic VSMCs (1.12 μM) by inhibiting SRF/myocardin interaction and abrogates the increased aortic wall stiffness in SHR rats in vivo (7.5 mg/kg/d via s.c. osmotic pumps for 2 wks).
CCG-1423 analog with similar efficacy and much less cytotoxicity. Inhibits SRF/myocardin interaction and reduces aortic VSMCs stiffening in vitro and in vivo.
HIV-1 hijacks host cell machinery to ensure successful replication, including cytoskeletal components for intracellular trafficking, nucleoproteins for pre-integration complex import, and the ESCRT pathway for assembly and budding. It is widely appreciated that cellular post-translational modifications (PTMs) regulate protein activity
CCG-1423 (1) is a novel inhibitor of Rho/MKL1/SRF-mediated gene transcription that inhibits invasion of PC-3 prostate cancer cells in a Matrigel model of metastasis. We recently reported the design and synthesis of conformationally restricted analogs (e.g., 2) with improved selectivity
Increased aortic stiffness is a fundamental manifestation of hypertension. However, the molecular mechanisms involved remain largely unknown. We tested the hypothesis that abnormal intrinsic vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) mechanical properties in large arteries, but not in distal arteries, contribute
We recently identified bis(amide) CCG-1423 (1) as a novel inhibitor of RhoA/C-mediated gene transcription that is capable of inhibiting invasion of PC-3 prostate cancer cells in a Matrigel model of metastasis. An initial structure-activity relationship study focusing on bioisosteric replacement
Thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1), also known as NKX2-1, plays a role as a lineage-survival oncogene in lung adenocarcinoma that possesses double-edged sword characteristics. Although evidence from previous studies has steadily accumulated regarding the roles of TTF-1 in transcriptional regulation of
