4EGI-1 is an inhibitor of eIF4E/eIF4G interaction, with a K_d of 25 μM against eIF4E binding.

Kd: 25 μM (eIF4E/eIF4G)^[1]

4EGI-1 is an inhibitor of eIF4E/eIF4G interaction, with a K_d of 25 μM against eIF4E binding. 4EGI-1 disrupts the eIF4F complex and inhibits expression of oncogenic proteins in mammalian cells. 4EGI-1 (0-40 μM) also exhibits proapoptotic activity and inhibits the growth of multiple cancer cell lines^[1]. 4EGI-1 is cytotoxic to breast cancer cells, such as SKBR-3, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells, with the IC₅₀ of appr 30 μM, and to the non-CSCs (Cancer stem cells), the IC₅₀ is about 22 μM. 4EGI-1 enhances breast CSC differentiation (40 μM), and suppresses breast CSC induced HUVEC tube-like structure formation (8 μM). Moreover, 4EGI-1 selectively inhibits translation that persists in CSC maintenance and dissemination^[2]. 4EGI-1 (50 µM) impairs the formation of eIF4F complex in U87 cells. 4EGI-1 (10, 50 and 100 µM) inhibits cell proliferation via inducing apoptosis in U87 cells, and the apoptosis is via Bax activation. 4EGI-1 causes mitochondrial dysfunction, and induces ER stress via GRP-78 activation, in U87 cells^[3].

1 × 10⁴ breast CSCs HMLER (CD44high/CD24low)FA cells and other indicated breast cancer cells are treated with DMSO, or [E]-4EGI-1 or [Z]-4EGI-1 at series of concentrations for 24 hours. The cells are performed cell viability assays with cell viability assay kit. Three independent experiments are performed. Average IC₅₀ results are shown (mean ± SD, t-test, two-tailed)^[2].

Mice^[2]
In the tumor xenografted assay, 1×10⁵ breast cancer stem cells (CSCs) are mixed with 100 μL Matrigel/DMEM mixture (Matrigel: DMEM = 1:2). Breast CSCs/Matrigel/DMEM mixtures are injected into NOD/SCID female mice mammary glands by subcutaneous injection. After the tumor formation (about 75 mm³ in volume, 5 mice/group), DMSO, or 75 mg/kg [E]-4EGI-1, or 75 mg/kg [Z]-4EGI-1 is injected into the mice by intraperitoneal injection daily for 30 days. Tumor volumes are measured every three days. At the 30th day, mice are sacrificed and tumors are excised. Tumors weights are measured. Tumor tissue samples are used for immunohistostaining, Western blot and immunoprecipitation analyses^[2].
