Description
ATN-161 (Ac-PHSCN-NH2) is a novel small peptide antagonist of . It binds to several integrins, including α5β1 and αvβ3, that play a role in angiogenesis and tumor progression.
ATN-161 interacts with the N-terminus of the β1-domain of integrin α5β1, which may lock this integrin in an inactive conformation. ATN-161 treatment up to 100 μmol/L shows no significant effect on tumor cell proliferation compared with the vehicle-treated control group of cells. However, ATN-161 significantly inhibits MAPK phosphorylation with maximal effects observed at 20 μmol/L of ATN-161 after 30 minutes of treatment.
In vivo
ATN-161 (Ac-PHSCN-NH2), a 5-mer capped peptide derived from the synergy region of fibronectin that binds to α5β1 and αvβ3 in vitro, blocks breast cancer growth and metastasis. Treatment with ATN-161 causes a significant dose-dependent decrease in tumor volume and either completely blocked or caused a marked decrease in the incidence and number of skeletal as well as soft tissue metastases. Treatment with ATN-161 results in a significant decrease in the expression of phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinase, microvessel density, and cell proliferation in tumors grown in vivo. ATN-161 is a peptide with a fairly short plasma half-life. compared with the plasma pharmacokinetics of ATN-161, It is cleared from the tumor with much slower kinetics supporting the hypothesis that this peptide exerts its effects through a durable interaction with its target(s)in the tumor.
