KC7F2

HIF-1α:20 μM

KC7F2 significantly reduces the latent period in the pentylenetetrazole kindling rat model and increases the rate of spontaneous recurrent seizures during the chronic stage in the lithium-pilocarpine rat model. [3]

KC7F2 inhibits HRE-driven transcription and decreases HIF-1α protein levels in LN229-HRE-AP cells. KC7F2 shows a dose-response cytotoxicity with IC50 of approximately 15 to 25 μM in cancer cells MCF7, LNZ308, A549, U251 mg, and LN229. In D54 mg glioma cells, KC7F2 inhibits colony formation, especially under hypoxia. [1] In hypoxic microglial cultures, KC7F2 downregulates the expression of TfR and DMT, and reduces the HIF-1α mediated iron accumulation. [2]

DMSO:57 mg/mL (100 mM)

Cells are seeded onto 96-well plates (4 × 103/well) and cultured under normoxic (21% O2) and hypoxic (1% O2) conditions with different concentrations of KC7F2 for 72 h or treated for various times with 20 μM KC7F2. For proliferation analysis, cells are fixed with 50% trichloroacetic acid for 1 h at 4°C, followed by staining with 0.4% sulforhodamine B dissolved in 1% acetic acid for 30 min at room temperature. Plates are washed five times with 1% acetic acid to remove unbound dye. Bound dye is dissolved by adding 10 mM unbuffered Tris base. Cell proliferation is calculated by measuring OD values at 564 nm using a spectrophotometer.(Only for Reference)
