General description

A cell-permeable chlorophenylethynylsulfonamide compound that binds directly to the substrate-binding domain of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and disrupts its interaction with client proteins. Impairs the activity of the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) in cell-free extracts. Arrests cell cycle at G2/M phase and preferentially induces genomic instability in cancer cells (IC50 = 2 to 5 µM in melanoma cell lines). Exhibits much reduced toxicity in non-transformed cells (IC50 >100 µM in primary melanocytes). Induces apoptosis and inhibits autophagy as evidenced by increased p62SQSTM1 and LC3 accumulation. Also, shown to extend life in murine models of pre-B cell lymphoma.

The chaperone HSP70 promotes the survival of cells exposed to many different types of stresses, and is also potently anti-apoptotic. The major stress-induced form of this protein, HSP70-1, is overexpressed in a number of human cancers, yet is negligibly expressed

The stress-induced HSP70 is an ATP-dependent molecular chaperone that plays a key role in refolding misfolded proteins and promoting cell survival following stress. HSP70 is marginally expressed in nontransformed cells, but is greatly overexpressed in tumor cells. Silencing HSP70 is
