OBESITY RESEARCH SOLUTIONSC188-9 is a STAT3 inhibitor.1,2 It binds to the phosphotyrosyl peptide binding site in the STAT3 Src homology 2 (SH2) domain (Ki = 136 nM) and inhibits G-CSF-induced activation of STAT3 in patient-derived acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells (IC50s = 8-18 µM). C188-9 induces apoptosis in patient-derived AML cells (EC50s = 6-50 µM) and reduces viability of HepG2, Huh7, and PLC/PRF/5 hepatoma cells (IC50s = 10.19, 11.27, and 11.83 µM, respectively).2,3 In vivo, C188-9 (100 mg/kg) reduces hepatic Pten deletion-induced hepatic macro- and microsteatosis, which reduces the development of hepatocellular carcinomas in mice. C188-9 (12.5 mg/kg) increases muscle fiber size in a murine Lewis lung carcinoma model of cancer cachexia.1
