| Description | RG 108 is a small-molecule inhibitor of DNMT(DNA methyltransferases) with an IC50 values of 600 nM in M.SssI assay. | |||||
| Targets | DNMT | |||||
| IC50 | 600 nM | |||||
| Cell experiment: [1] | |
Cell lines | The human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells. |
Preparation method | The solubility of this compound in DMSO is >10 mM. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37 °C for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while.Stock solution can be stored below -20°C for several months. |
Reaction Conditions | 48 h; 50 μM |
Applications | Cells were pretreated with 50 μM RG108 for 48 h and then after removal of the inhibitor cultivated with 1 μM RA for the next 4 days. Viable cell number was determined daily by counting in a hemocytometer after staining with 0.2% trypan blue. Cell cycle analysis of PI stained cells by flow cytometry demonstrated a slight decrease in the proportion of cells in S-phase (by 20% from control) after treatment with minor changes in G2/M. |

RG108 is a DNA methyltransferase (DMNT) inhibitor that enhanced reprogramming of OK-transduced MEFs in the presence of BIX. It is a small molecule that effectively blocked DNA methyltransferases in vitro and did not cause covalent enzyme trapping in human cell lines. DNA methylation regulates gene expression in normal and malignant cells. DNA methyltransferase inhibitors are able to reactivate epigenetically silenced genes. RG108 caused demethylation and reactivation of tumor suppressor genes, but it did not affect the methylation of centromeric satellite sequences. These results establish RG108 as a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor with fundamentally novel characteristics that will be particularly useful for the experimental modulation of epigenetic gene regulation.
