VPC-18005 inhibits ERG-induced transcription and interacts directly with the ERG-ETS domain, and disrupts the ERG binding to DNA. VPC-18005 is a potent inhibitor of luciferase activity[1]. VPC-18005 is found to inhibit pETS-luc reporter activity in PNT1B-ERG and VCaP cells with IC50 values of 3 and 6 μM, respectively[1].VPC-18005 could suppress ERG reporter activity without exhibiting overt cytotoxicity[1].VPC-18005 inhibits migration and invasion of ERG-overexpressing cells in vitro[1].VPC-18005 can antagonize the metastatic potential of ERG-expressing prostate cells[1].The exposure of larvae to 1 or 10 μM of VPC-18005 produced a 20-30% decrease in the dissemination of cancer cells in zebrafsh[2].
