[CAS NO. 278603-08-0]  NH125

In C6 glioma cells, NH125 decreases the cellular content of phospho-eEF-2 without affecting total content eEF-2 content, and blocks cell cycle transit at the G1-S boundary. NH125 potently inhibits cell viability of 10 cancer cells with IC50 ranging from 0.7 to 4.8 μM. NH125 effectively inhibits histidine protein kinases, including Envz, PhoQ, BvgS, EvgS, and thus produces potent anti-bacteria activities on oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (ORSA), vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis (VRE), penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae (PRS), and other Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. EEF2K inhibition by NH125 renders tumor cells more sensitive to curcumin and velcade, which possess ER stress-inducing action.
