Potent inhibitor of SUMO-specific protease 1 (SENP1) that increases SUMOylated proteins in PC3 cells

Table of Contents

Momordin Ιc, a pentacyclic triterpenoid isolated from fruit of Kochia scoparia (L.) and other medical plants, is a potent inhibitor of SUMO-specific protease 1 (SENP1) that increases SUMOylated proteins in PC3 cells. Momordin Ιc inhibits cell proliferation and induced cell death in prostate cancer PC3 xenograft mouse model. Momordin Ιc decreases serum glucose and ethanol levels after oral administration through acceleration of gastrointestinal transit.

Possible involvement of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), 5-HT receptors and prostaglandins in the acceleration of gastrointestinal transit by momordin Ic was investigated in mice. Accelerative effect of momordin Ic (25 mg/kg, p.o.) on gastrointestinal transit was attenuated by pretreatment with a bolus

SUMO-specific protease 1 (SENP1), a member of the de-SUMOylation protease family, is elevated in prostate cancer (PCa) cells and is involved in PCa pathogenesis. Momordin Ιc (Mc), a natural pentacyclic triterpenoid, inhibited SENP1 in vitro, as reflected by reduced SENP1C-induced
