Description
FH-535 (108409-83-2) suppresses Wnt/β-catenin signaling. It antagonizes PPARγ and PPARδ ligand-dependent activation which is mediated by inhibition of recruitment of the coactivators β-catenin and GRIP1 but not the corepressors NCoR and SMRT.1?Inhibits the migration and growth of breast cancer cell lines2 as well as colon, lung and liver cell lines1. FH-535 is a useful tool for probing the involvement of Wnt signaling pathway.3,4
Chemical Properties
Dark Yellow Solid
Uses
A cell-permeable compound that inhibits Wnt/β-catenin and PPAR
Uses
Antagonizes Wnt/β-catenin/Tcf-mediated transcription as well as PPARγ and δ activity. Able to inhibit the recruitment of the co-activators β-catenin and GRIP1, both of which are activators for both pathways.
Definition
ChEBI: 2,5-dichloro-N-(2-methyl-4-nitrophenyl)benzenesulfonamide is a sulfonamide.
Biochem/physiol Actions
FH535 has the ability to block the development of colon cancer cells. It can change several cancer-associated biological processes. FH535 can also prevent PARylation of Axin2 in osteosarcoma cells.
