Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, new NF-κB inhibitor TM-233 was synthesized from natural compound 1'-acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA) having NF-κB inhibitory activity. TM-233 has more potent NF-κB inhibitory activity than that of ACA and induced cell death of myeloma cells via production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). TM-233 phosphorylated JAK2 and STAT3 and obstructed the shift to a nucleus of NF-κB p65. In addition, TM-233 induced cell death of bortezomib-resistant myeloma cells through inhibition of β-ring β1, β2, and β5 in the proteasome. TM-233 may become the new therapeutic agent for the multiple myeloma having potent NF-κB inhibitory activity in the bone marrow microenvironment.
