IWR-1

IWR-1, also known as IWR-1-endo, is a an inhibitor of the Wnt signaling cascade through inhibiting TNKSs, binding only to the adenosine-binding site. IWR-1 inhibits epithelial-mesenchymal transition of colorectal cancer cells through suppressing Wnt/β-catenin signaling as well as survivin expression. IWR-1 inhibits cell proliferation and EMT even in the presence of TNF-α-induced cancer cell stimulation. IWR-1 also significantly suppressed cell migration, invasion, and matrix metalloproteinase activities of CRC cell lines. IWR-1 provides EMT reversal effects by directly suppressing survivin expression.

How to use

In Vitro:

Both IWR-1 and XAV939 act as reversible Wnt pathway inhibitors and exhibit similar pharmacological effects in vitro. IWR-1 exerts its effect via interaction with Axin, while XAV939 binds TNKS directly. IWR-1 (10 μM) induces stabilization of β-catenin disruption complex. IWR-1 (10 μM) is added to the medium together with MIF, the size of cell colonies is extremely decreased, and that indicates the promoting effect of MIF on NSPC proliferation is inhibited by IWR-1 in any MIF concentration group. 2, 5 and 10 μM of IWR-1 significantly inhibits the proliferation of NSPC dose-dependently. IWR-1 inhibites the promoting effect of MIF on NSPC differentiation to neuron lineage. IWR-1 treatment in the presence of maximal stimulatory dose of FSH (0.5 ng/mL) results in a dose dependent inhibition of the stimulatory effect of FSH with > 75% inhibition observed at the maximal inhibitory dose of IWR-1 (1 µM). IWR-1 treatment partially reverses the FSH-induced inhibition of granulosa cell CARTPT mRNA expression.
