Sanggenon G is a cell-permeable and potent inhibitor of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) . Sanggenon G binds specifically to the BIR3 domain of XIAP with a binding affinity of 34.26 μM. Sanggenon G enhances caspase activation
In Vitro
Sanggenon G (14.4 μM, 24 h) enhances caspase-8, -3 and -9 cleavage, displaces caspase-9 from XIAP and sensitizes Molt3/XIAP cells to Etoposide (HY-13629)-induced apoptosis. Sanggenon G not only sensitizes the XIAP-overexpressing leukemia cell line Molt3/XIAP to Etoposide (HY-13629) treatment but also different neuroblastoma cell lines endogenously expressing high XIAP levels. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
