Biological Activity

Cryptotanshinone was originally isolated from the dried roots of Salvia militorrhiza, an herb that is used extensively in Asian medicine and that is known to exert beneficial effects on the circulatory system.Cryptotanshinone rapidly inhibited STAT3 Tyr705 phosphorylation in DU145 prostate cancer cells and the growth of the cells through 96 hours of the treatment.Cryptotanshinone significantly attenuated atherosclerotic plaque formation and enhanced plaque stability in ApoE-/- mice by inhibiting lectin-like oxLDL receptor-1 (LOX-1) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) expression, as well as inhibiting reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and nuclear factor- kappa B (NF-κB) activation.In vitro,Cryptotanshinone decreased oxLDL-induced LOX-1 mRNA and protein expression, and thereby, inhibited LOX-1-mediated monocytes adhesion to HUVECs through reducing the expression of adhesion molecules (ICAM-1 and VCAM-1).Cryptotanshinone inhibited NADPH oxidase subunit 4 (NOX4)-mediated ROS generation and consequent activation of NF-κB in HUVECs.

Related STAT Products
Artesunate

Artesunate is a potential STAT3 inhibitor that acts on the small cell lung cancer cell line H69 with an IC50 value of < 5 μM and is also used in antimalarial studies. Artesunate also promotes ROS signaling and lipid peroxidation by increasing the formation of variable iron pools, ultimately leading to iron death in pancreatic cancer cells.

NSC 74859 (S3I-201)

NSC 74859 (S3I-201) is a selective Stat3 inhibitor with an IC50 of 86 μM. NSC 74859 (S3I-201) is effective in hepatocellular cancers with disrupted TGF-beta signaling.*The compound is unstable in solutions, freshly prepared is recommended

Fludarabine

Fludarabine (NSC 118218) is a STAT1 activation inhibitor and a DNA synthesis inhibitor. Fludarabine inhibits DNA synthesis by interfering with ribonucleotide reductase and DNA polymerase. Fludarabine markedly inhibited VSMC proliferation in cell culture. Fludarabine also induces significant reduction of STAT-1 phosphorylation, whereas it does not change JAK2 activation. Fludarabine exhibits antiproliferative activity (IC50 = 1.54 μM in RPMI cells) and triggers apoptosis through increasing Bax and decreasing Bid, XIAP and survivin expression.

Niclosamide

Niclosamide is an inhibitor of STAT3 with an IC50 value of 0.25 μM.

Nifuroxazide

Nifuroxazide is a cell-permeable and orally available nitrofuran-based antidiarrheal agent that effectively suppresses the activation of cellular STAT1/3/5 transcription activity with IC50 of 3 μM against IL-6-induced STAT3 activation in U3A cells.
