Product Description

SC66 is a novel, potent and allosteric inhibitor of AKT with potential anticancer activity, it reduces cell viability in a dose- and time-dependent manner, inhibits colony formation and induces apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. With IC50 values of 0.77, 2.85, and 0.47 μg/ml in HepG2, Huh7, and Hep3B cells, respectively, SC66 demonstrates a dual inhibitory function toward AKT activity. In hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells, SC66 inhibits colony formation, decreases cell viability in a dose- and time-dependent manner, and triggers apoptosis. SC66 treatment led to a reduction in total and phospho-AKT levels. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and DNA damage were both induced by SC66. Both the effects of doxorubicin, a traditional chemotherapeutic, and those of everolimus, a targeted agent, were markedly enhanced by SC66. Hep3B cell tumor growth was inhibited by SC66 in vivo in xenograft models; an analogous mechanism was seen in the in vitro model. HCC cells responded favorably to SC66's antitumor properties.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Akt
ln Vitro
SC66 inhibits colony formation, causes apoptosis in HCC cells, and decreases cell viability in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Total and phospho-AKT levels are decreased after SC66 treatment. This is accompanied by modifications in the cytoskeleton's structure, a decrease in the expression levels of E-cadherin, β-catenin, and phospho-FAK, as well as an upregulation of Snail protein. DNA damage and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production are additional effects of SC66. The AKT/mTOR signaling in HCC cell lines is impacted by SC66[1].
ln Vivo
In the mouse xenograft tumor model of Hep3B cells, SC66 treatment significantly reduces tumor volume to 37% on day 17 of treatment when compared with tumors in the untreated group. In the tumors of animals given SC66 treatment, there is a correlation between the inhibition of cell growth and a decrease in phospho-AKT levels[1].
Cell Assay
Caspase activity assays: Cells (2 × 104/well) are treated with 2 and 4 μg/ml SC66 and after 1, 3 and 6 hours the levels of caspase3/7 activities in the cells are measured by the Caspase-Glo® 3/7 Assay. Relative luminescence units (RLU) are used to express results. Values are the mean SD of two separate experiments that were carried out in duplicate.
Animal Protocol
Mice: We use 4-week-old male nude athymic mice (Fox1 nu/nu). Inoculations of 1×107 Hep3B cells in 0.2 mL of PBS are injected into the animal's right flank. The mice are randomly divided into three groups of six animals each, with the various tumor volumes evenly distributed among the three groups, at the point at which the tumors become palpable (around 150 mm3). Two groups of mice are given i.p. injections of SC66 (15 and 25 mg/kg) suspended in DMSO, further diluted in a solution of 25% ethanol, twice weekly. The only vehicle is given to the control group. Using calipers, tumor volumes are calculated twice per week. Volumes of the primary tumor are calculated.
