Atiprimod (Azaspirane) (dimaleate) is an anti-proliferative and anti-angiogenic agent that inhibits proliferation of cancer cell lines. Atiprimod (dimaleate) also induces Apoptosis and activates both caspase-9 and caspase-3 in T84 colon carcinoma cells. Atiprimod (dimaleate) inhibits both bFGF and VEGF induced proliferation and migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells, resulting in disruption of cord formation. Atiprimod (dimaleate) reduces production of IL-6, VEGF and inhibits activation of Stat3[1].
