VY-3-135 is a potent and orally stable ACSS2 inhibitor with an IC50 value of 44±3.85nM and a water solubility of 21.7μM[1]. VY-3-135 is currently used in anti-breast cancer studies and derivative screening assays[2-3].
In vitro, VY-3-135 treatment at 100μM for 48 hours significantly inhibited the proliferation and cell survival of MDA-MB-231BR cells and 4T1 cells[4].
In vivo, VY-3-135 treatment (100mg/kg) through oral gavage daily for 30 days significantly inhibited tumor growth and obviously improved survival in a mouse model of breast cancer xenografts, resulting in enhanced immune cell infiltration and activation and elevated expression of interferon signaling[5].

VY-3-135是一种强效且具有口服稳定性的ACSS2抑制剂,IC50值为44±3.85nM,水溶性为21.7μM[1]。VY-3-135目前被应用于抗乳腺癌研究及衍生物筛选实验[2-3]。
在体外,使用100μM浓度的VY-3-135处理48小时能显著抑制MDA-MB-231BR细胞和4T1细胞的增殖与存活[4]。
在体内,通过每日100mg/kg剂量的口服灌胃给药持续30天,VY-3-135在乳腺癌移植瘤小鼠模型中表现出显著的肿瘤生长抑制效果,并明显提高生存率,增强免疫细胞浸润与活化,同时上调干扰素信号通路表达[5]。
