Mito-LND (Mito-Lonidamine) is an orally active and mitochondria-targeted inhibitor of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Mito-LND inhibits mitochondrial bioenergetics, stimulates the formation of reactive oxygen species, and induces autophagic cell death in lung cancer cells[1]. | [Biological Activity]
Mito-LND (Mito-Lonidamine) is an orally active and mitochondria-targeted inhibitor of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Mito-LND inhibits mitochondrial bioenergetics, stimulates the formation of reactive oxygen species, and induces autophagic cell death in lung cancer cells[1].
Mito-LND blocks lung cancer growth, migration, and invasion. Mito-LND inhibits cell growth of H2030BrM3 and A549 cells with IC50 values of 0.74 μM and 0.69 μM, respectively[1].Mito-LND inhibits mitochondrial complex I and II activities with IC50 values of 1.2 μM and 2.4 μM, respectively in H2030BrM3 cells[1]. Mito-LND (1 μM) increases ROS generation in H2030BrM3 lung cancer cells. Mito-LND potently induces mitochondrial ROS generation in H2030BrM3 lung cancer cells[1].Mito-LND (2 μM) decreases the levels of phosphorylated AKT. Mito-LND also decreases the phosphorylation of P70S6K and other energy-sensing proteins in both the parental and metastatic lung cancer cell lines, indicating that Mito-LND specifically downregulates mTOR signaling[1].
Mito-LND (7.5 μmol/kg; oral gavage; 5 days per week; for 3 consecutive weeks) treatment markedly enhanced potency against both lung cancer progression and metastasis[1]. Mito-LND also decreases the rate of growth of A549 tumor xenografts[1].Mito-LND treatment shows a marked decrease in lung cancer brain metastasis in NOD/SCID mice bearing H2030BrM3 cells[1]. | [in vivo]

Mito-LND treatment shows a marked decrease in lung cancer brain metastasis in NOD/SCID mice bearing H2030BrM3 cells[1]. | Animal Model: | Athymic nude mice (5 weeks) injected with H2030BrM3 cells[1] | | Dosage: | 7.5?μmol/kg | | Administration: | Oral gavage; 5 days per week; for 3 consecutive weeks | | Result: | Significantly decreased tumor progression. |
