ELESCLOMOL

Biochem/physiol Actions

Elesclomol (STA-4783) is a copper (II)-chelating malonohydrazide derivative that exerts its in vitro and in vivo anticancer efficacy via reactive oxygen species (ROS)/oxidative stress & apoptosis induction in a Cu(II)-dependent manner (GI50 = 12 nM without vs. 129 nM with Cu2+ removal by TRIEN in K562 culture; typical conc. range 0.1-2 µM in cultures). Elesclomol chelates extracellular Cu(II) for mitochondria delivery, where upon Cu2+ reduction (to Cu+) & ROS generation, copper-free elesclomol then exits cells for continual Cu(II) shuttling and accumulation in mitochondria. In addition to Cu2+, elesclomol can also chelate Co2+ and Ni2+, but not Fe3+ or Zn2+.
