CPS-11  (Synonyms: N-(Hydroxymethyl)thalidomide)

CPS-11 (N-(Hydroxymethyl)thalidomide) a Thalidomide (HY-14658) analogue, is a potent anti-cancer agent. CPS-11 inhibits NF-κB, activates NFAT, and repress cytokine expression through elevated ROS. CPS-11 exhibits a wider activity spectrum and higher potency against MM (multiple myeloma) cell lines^[1][2][3].

CPS-11 abrogates ability of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) to induce proliferation of MM cells, confirming its ability to target tumor cells in the bone marrow microenvironment^[1].
CPS-11 (0-200 μM, 0 or 4 h) shows virtually no effect on activation of p38 and only slight, transient activation of ATF2 and HSP27^[2].
CPS-11 (0-100 μM, 24 or 48 h) was no toxic to H157 cells, WT MEFs or the p38α-/- MEFs at doses as high as 100 μM^[2].
CPS-11 (50 μM, 24 or 48 h) does not induce apoptosis in H157 cells^[2].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
