Merck, SML1976-5MG, DIM-C-pPhCO2Me

Biochem/physiol Actions
DIM-C-pPhCO2Me is a NR4A1 (Nur77) antagonist that exhibit potent anticancer activity in pancreatic, colon, breast, kidney, and rhabdomyosarcoma cells. DIM-C-pPhCO2Me decreases expression of PAX3-FOXO1A and β1-integrin proteins in Rh30 rhabdomyosarcoma and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. DIM-C-pPhCO2Me inhibits migration of Rh30 and MDA-MB-231 cancer cells.
NR4A1 (Nur77) antagonist that exhibit potent anticancer activity
DIM-C-pPhCO₂Me is also known as 1,1-bis(3′-indolyl)-1-(p-carboxymethylphenyl)methane. In pancreatic and colon cancer cells, DIM-C-pPhCO₂Me plays an inhibitory role on cell migration. DIM-C-pPhCO₂Me prevents the action of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) and reduces the multiplication and survival of cancer cells. It stimulates reactive oxygen species (ROS) in various cancer cell lines.
