Description

General description

A cell-permeable thienylhydrazone compound that suppresses the translation of cellular HIF-2α message by enhancing the binding of IRP1 (Iron-Regulatory Protein 1) to the IRE (Iron-Responsive Element) region at the 5′ UTR of the HIF-2α mRNA, exhibiting otherwise no effects toward the transcription of HIF-2α mRNA or the stability of HIF-2α mRNA and protein. Shown to reduce cellular protein levels of HIF-2α and HIF-2α target genes, including Glut-1, IGFBP3, and VEGF, in 786-O cells (5 to 10 µM final concentration) that express only the 2α isoform of hypoxia-inducible factor.
