A cell-permeable boranyl-chalcone that binds strongly to MDM2 and irreversibly disrupts MDM2/p53 protein complex. Exhibits selective toxicity towards MDM2 overexpressing human breast cancer cell lines (IC50 = 10, 8.8, and 7 µM for MDA-MB-435, MDA-MB-231, and Wt-MCF7, respectively) compared to normal breast cell lines (IC50 = 75 and 63 µM for MCF-10A and MCF-12A, respectively). Purity: ≥95% by HPLC. CAS 562823-84-1. Ref.: Kumar, S.K., et al. 2003. J. Med. Chem. 46, 2813. |
