DMU-212

DMU-212 is a methylated derivative of resveratrol with antimitotic, anti-proliferative, antioxidant, and apoptosis-promoting activities. It induces mitotic arrest, apoptosis, and activation of ERK1/2 protein and has oral activity[1][2]. DMU-212 (0.3125-40 μM) inhibits the growth of human melanoma cells (A375, MeWo, Bro, M5)[1]. At concentrations of 30-50 μM over 24 hours, it upregulates cell cycle inhibitors, induces apoptosis, and activates ERK in A375 cells[1]. DMU-212 also induces G2/M arrest and apoptosis in cancer cells[1]. In a xenograft model of human ovarian cancer with six-week-old SCID female mice (20-24 g), DMU-212 (50 mg/kg, administered orally three times a week for 14 days) inhibits tumor growth[2]. [1].
