Small Molecule TH-39 Potentially Targets Hec1/Nek2 Interaction and Exhibits Antitumor Efficacy in K562 Cells via G0/G1 Cell Cycle Arrest and Apoptosis Induction

Abstract: Background: Cancer is still a major public health issue worldwide, and new therapeutics with anti-tumor activity are still urgently needed. Methods: The anti-tumor activity of TH-39, which shows potent anti-proliferative activity against K562 cells with an IC50 of 0.78 µM, was investigated using immunoblot, co-immunoprecipitation, the MTT assay, and flow cytometry. Results: Mechanistically, TH-39 may disrupt the interaction between Hec1 and Nek2 in K562 cells. Moreover, TH-39 inhibited cell prolifer… Show more

“…For further analysis of the effect of Statmp-151, we performed Annexin V and PI double dye detection of MDA-MB-231 and 4T1 cells (Zhu et al, 2016). As shown in Figure 4A,B, Statmp-151 was able to induce breast cancer cell apoptosis in a dosedependent manner after treatment for 24 h compared to that in the control group.…”
