C-DIM12 Chemical Properties, Uses, Production

Description

C-DIM12 is a para-phenyl-substituted diindolylmethane (C-DIM) that is an orally bioavailable activator of nuclear receptor-related protein 1 (Nurr1/NR4A2). It is selective for Nurr1, not activating Nur77, neuron-derived orphan receptor 1 (Nor1), or the retinoid X receptor (RXR) in parallel luciferase assays. C-DIM12 (2.5-10 μM) inhibits proliferation of Ku7 and 253J B-V bladder cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner and induces apoptosis of KU7 cells in a Nurr1-dependent manner. In an orthotopic nude mouse model, C-DIM12 suppresses bladder cancer cell growth by 44 and 59% at doses of 12.5 and 25 mg/kg, respectively. C-DIM12 has neuroprotective properties, preventing dopaminergic cell loss and reducing the expression of NF-κB in the substantia nigra pars compacta in an MPTP mouse model of Parkinson’s disease. It also has analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity in the tail immersion and carrageenan paw edema assays at a dose of 100 mg/kg, without causing ulcers in rats.

Uses

C-DIM12 is a potent, orally active Nurr1 antagonist. C-DIM12 inhibits the tumor growth and autophagy, and induces the cell apoptosis. C-DIM12 has anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects, and can be used for cancer and neurological disease study[1][2][3].

in vivo

C-DIM12 (25 mg/kg for i.p., 14 day) modulates glial reactivity in MPTP-Induced Parkinsonism mice[2].
C-DIM12 (50-100 mg/kg for i.p., three times ) attenuates brain inflammation and improves functional recovery after intracerebral hemorrhage in mice[3].
C-DIM12 (30 mg/kg for i.p., 30 day) inhibits tumor growth and autophagy, and induces apoptosis in NURR1-KO cells orthotopic xenograft[1].

Animal Model:MPTP-induced C57BL/6 male Parkinsonism mice [2]
Dosage:25 mg/kg/day, 14day
Administration:Intragastric gavage (i.g.)
Result:Protected against the loss of DA neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta and DA terminals in the striatum, maintained a ramified phenotype in microglia, and suppressed activation of astrocytes.
Animal Model:The ICR mice model of intracerebral hemorrhage induced by collagenase type VII[3]
Dosage:50 and 100mg/kg/day at a 24-h interval, three times
Administration:Orally administration
Result:Improved the recovery of neurological function and prevented neuron loss in the hematoma, while suppressed activation of microglia/macrophages and expression of inflammatory mediators interleukin-6 and CC chemokine ligand 2.
Preserved axonal structures in the internal capsule and axonal transport function.
Decreased of iNOS mRNA expression.
Animal Model:MiaPaCa2 cells (Ctrl and NURR1-KO) orthotopic xenograft tumor models[1]
Dosage:30 mg/kg, 30 day
Administration:Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.)
Result:Inhibited tumor growth and ATG7 and ATG12 mRNA levels, and induced apoptosis.
