Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) is a tetracycline biosynthetic precursor and a competitive broad-spectrum inhibitor of tetracycline destructase[1]. Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) is a regulator of the tetracycline repressor (TetR) and reverse tetracycline repressor (revTetR) transcriptional repressors in eukaryotic cells [2]. TetR is an effector-regulated DNA binding protein that binds tightly to its palindromic tetO operator DNA in the absence of effectors, thereby blocking transcription of any downstream genes [3]. Anhydrotetracycline binds poorly to the 30S ribosomal subunit, so it cannot act as a general translation inhibitor and is a poor antibiotic [4].
In vitro, treatment of NIH3T3-HER2 cells with Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) (10 ng/ml) for 3 days resulted in downregulation of the HER2 gene to below the detection limit [5]. Treatment of N1 cells with Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) (10-200nM) for 7 days significantly reduced the expression level of the Top10-driven GUS gene[6].
In vivo, treatment of mice with NIH3T3-HER2 cell-based tumor model with Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) (10mg/kg; s.c.) resulted in tumor regression of more than 95% within 7 days[5]. Treatment of mice with NIH3T3-HER2 cell-based tumor model with Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) (10mg/kg; i.p.) induced downregulation of ERBB2 mRNA and protein, leading to a rapid reduction in tumor volume[7].
