What are the applications of Application

HSP-990 is an inhibitor of Hsp90

Biological Activity

hsp990 (nvp-hsp990) is a potent and selective inhibitor of hsp90 with ic50 values of 0.6, 0.8 and 8.5 nm for hsp90α, hsp90β and grp94, respectively [1].heat shock protein 90 (hsp90) is a chaperone protein that stabilizes proteins against heat stress, assists proteins to fold properly and aids in protein degradation. also, hsp90 stabilizes proteins required for tumor growth.hsp990 (nvp-hsp990) is a potent and selective hsp90 inhibitor. nvp-hsp990 bound to the n-terminal atp-binding domain of hsp90. nvp-hsp990 inhibited trap1 atpase activity by 90% with ic50 value of 320 nm. in gtl-16 cells, nvp-hsp990 destabilized the hsp90-p23 complex in a concentration- and time-dependent way. also, nvp-hsp990 decreased c-met with ec50 value of 37 nm and induced hsp70 with ec50 value of 20 nm. nvp-hsp990 inhibited erk and akt phosphorylation with ec50 values of 11 and 6 nm respectively and thus inhibited erk and akt activation. in five human tumor cell lines, nvp-hsp990 inhibited cell growth with gi50 values of 4-40 nm [1]. in glioma tumor-initiating cells, nvp-hsp990 inhibited cell growth with ic50 value of 10-500 nm in a dose-dependent way and reduced cdk2 and cdk4, thus disrupting cell-cycle control [2].in the gtl-16 gastric cancer mice model, nvp-hsp990 exhibited antitumor efficacy [1].
