Patupilone (Epothilone B)

InformationPatupilone (Epothilone B) Patupilone (EPO906, Epothilone B) is a paclitaxel-like microtubule -stabilizing agent with EC 0.01 of 1.8 μM. Phase 2.In vitroEpothilone B shows better activity than Epothilone A. The EC0.01 of Epothilone B is 1.8 μM. Epothilone B potently inhibits cell proliferation in HCT116 cells, with IC50 of 0.8 nM. Epothilone B induces mitotic arrest and displays cytotoxicity in KB3-1, KBV-1, Hela, and Hs578T cells, with IC50 of 3 nM to 92 nM. Epothilone B competes with Taxol in binding to microtubules, with IC50 of 3.3 μM. In MCF-7 cells overexpressing GFP-α-tubulin, Epothilone B (3.5 nM) efficiently blocks microtubule dynamics. Meanwhile, Epothilone B induces mitotic arrest with IC50 of 3.5 nM. In multiple myeloma (MM) cells, including RPMI 8226, U266, MM.1S, LR5, and MR20, Epothilone B directly suppresses proliferation with IC50 of 1 nM to 10 nM. Similarly, Epothilone B (10 nM) also induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. A recent study reveals that, in ovarian cancer Hey cells, Epothilone B (5 nM–100 nM) enhances surface epithelial cell adhesion antigen (EpCAM), without affecting the transcription or the total cellular level of EpCAM.In vivoIn a mouse xenograft model of RPMI 8226 cells, Epothilone B (2.5 mg/kg–4 mg/kg) prolongs survival and suppresses tumor growth. Similarly, in mouse xenograft models of prostate cancer cells, including DU145 and PC3, Epothilone B at the same dose also inhibits tumor growth.Cell Datacell lines：HeLa-S3 cellsConcentrations：0–1 μMIncubation Time：72 hoursPowder Purity:≥99%.
