iMPZ-8
Based on 1 Customer Validation
iMPZ-8 is a β-tubulin polymerization inhibitor that inhibits β-tubulin protein expression, disrupts microtubule structure, impairs microtubule organization. iMPZ-8 inhibits proliferation and reduces cellular migration and colonization in cancer cells. iMPZ-8 induces G2/M phase arrestand induces apoptosis via the BAX-Caspase-3 intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. iMPZ-8 can be used for the research of cancer, suah as breast cancer, neuroblastoma and colon cancer.

In Vitro
iMPZ-8 (1-80 μM; 72 h) potently inhibits proliferation in MDA-MB-231, SH-SY5Y, and DLD-1 cancer cells with IC50 values of 7.5 μM, 9.2 μM, and 19.7 μM, respectively[1].
iMPZ-8 (3 μM; 48 h) significantly inhibits β-tubulin expression and disrupts microtubule structure in MDA-MB-231 cells, with efficacy similar to nocodazole[1].
iMPZ-8 (3 μM; 48 h) inhibits migration in MDA-MB-231 cells by approximately 50%[1].
iMPZ-8 (3 μM; 7 to 10 days) reduces colony formation in MDA-MB-231 cells by approximately 30%[1].
iMPZ-8 (3 μM; 48 h) induces G2/M phase cell cycle arrest in MDA-MB-231 cells[1].
iMPZ-8 (3 μM; 48 h) induces intrinsic apoptosis via the BAX-Caspase-3 pathway in MDA-MB-231 cells[1].
