MilliporeSigma™ Calbiochem™ RubR1 Activator, GF-15

Description

• A cell-permeable 2'-benzyloxy griseofulvin derivative that displays enhanced mammalian cancer-selective toxicity (IC 50 ≤2, ≤4, ≤12, and ≥30μM against panels of leukemia, myeloma, solid tumors, and non-malignant cell lines, respectively), but little antifungal activity, by activating spindle-assembly-checkpoint without affecting microtubule kinetochore attachment
• Cancer cells are reported to undergo multipolar (MP) mitosis with normal or supernumerary centrosomes in the presence of GF-15, resulting in subsequent apoptotic cell death
• Shown to retard HT29 colon cancer & OPM2 myeloma tumor expansion in mice (20mg/kg/day i.p.) in vivo
• GF-15 half-life is expected to be least 48 h in cultures
• Please note that the molecular weight for this compound is batch-specific due to variable water content
• Please refer to the vial label or the certificate of analysis for the batch-specific molecular weight
• The molecular weight provided represents the baseline molecular weight without water.
