Product Data:
Biological target: SKI 5C is an inhibitor of sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1; IC50 = 3.3 μM). It is selective for SPHK1 over SPHK2 at 10 μM and PKC at concentrations less than 100 μM. SKI 5C inhibits SPHK1 activity by 70% in U937 cells when used at a concentration of 5 μM.
In vitro activity: SKI 5C may act as new candidate drug for Wilms' tumor. Treatment with SKI-5C inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis of SK-NEP-1 and G401 cells in a dose-dependent manner. SKI 5C-treated SK-NEP-1 cells mostly downregulated PRKACA and significantly inhibited phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and NF-κB p65, implying that SKI 5C induces apoptosis of SK-NEP-1 cells through the PRKACA/MAPK/NF-κB pathway. Reference: Am J Transl Res. 2016 Nov 15;8(11):4548-4563. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27904661/
In vivo activity: SKI 5C has potential in the treatment of endometriotic lesions. In mice, SKI 5C significantly inhibited the development and vascularization of peritoneal endometriotic lesions, when compared to vehicle-treated controls. Endometriotic lesions in dorsal skinfold chambers of SKI 5C-treated mice exhibited a significantly smaller lesion size, lower functional microvessel density, smaller microvessel diameters and a reduced blood perfusion of the newly developing microvascular networks.
