Biological Activity

Lucanthone is an ionizing radiation enhancer and apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) inhibitor with IC50 of 5 uM for inhibition of APE1 incision of depurinated plasmid DNA, also may act as an inhibitor of protein palmitoyl thioesterase 1 (PPT1).
Lucanthone slows GBM by inhibiting autophagic flux through lysosome targeting and decreases the number of Olig2+ glioma stem-like cells (GSC) in vitro and in vivo.
Lucanthone efficiently abates stemness in patient-derived GSC and reduces tumor microtube formation in GSC, an emerging hallmark of treatment resistance in GBM.
Lucanthone is an orally available thioxanthone-based DNA intercalator and inhibitor of the DNA repair enzyme apurinic-apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) potential antineoplastic activity, also inhibits autophagy; induces lysosomal membrane permeabilization, and possesses significantly more potent activity in breast cancer models compared with chloroquine; induces cathepsin D-mediated apoptosis.
