Key Product Details
Description
Product Description
NSC 23766 is a selective inhibitor of Rac1-GEF interaction. NSC 23766 prevents Rac1 activation by Rac-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) TrioN and Tiam1 (IC50 ~ 50 μM) without affecting Cdc42 or RhoA activation. The compound inhibits Rac1-mediated cell functions and is reported to reverse tumor cell phenotypes in prostate cancer cells. NSC 23766 also inhibits mammary carcinoma cell invasion in vitro and inhibits mammary tumor progression and metastasis in a mouse model.

Species: MouseAssay Type: In VitroVerified Customer | Posted 09/08/2025Small GTPase Activity and Inhibitors We analyzed the activity of small GTPases in the BMDMs and Raw264.7 cells by using the recommended procedure provided with the G-LISA Assay Biochem kit (Cytoskeleton Inc.). The activities of RhoA (BK124), Rac (BK125), and Cdc42 (BK127) were assessed. For the pharmacological inhibition study, GFP-mNinj1 Raw264.7 cells were treated with either NSC23766 (Rac1 inhibitor, Tocris) or the dimethyl sulfoxide carrier for 3 h at the indicated concentrations.
