PNC-27

PNC-27 Synthetic is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 32 amino acids, having a molecular mass of 4031.72 Dalton and a Molecular formula of C₁₈₈H₂₉₃N₅₃O₄₄S.

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

The protein was lyophilized with no additives.          

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized PNC-27 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H₂O not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Lyophilized PNC-27 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution PNC-27 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).

Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Greater than 97.0% as determined by analysis by RP-HPLC.

PNC-27, a promising anticancer peptide, has gained attention due to its selective cytotoxicity against cancer cells without harming normal cells. This paper aims to elucidate the biochemical characteristics of PNC-27 and explore its potential therapeutic applications in the field of oncology.

PNC-27, a novel anticancer peptide, holds great promise in the treatment of cancer due to its unique mechanism of action and selective cytotoxicity towards cancer cells (Goldberg et al., 2010). This paper seeks to delve into the biochemical attributes of PNC-27 and its therapeutic potential in cancer treatment.

Derived from the p53 tumor-suppressor protein, PNC-27 exhibits a unique binding affinity for the MDM-2 protein found in the membranes of cancer cells. This binding triggers membrane pore formation, leading to cell lysis and death, leaving normal cells unaffected (Goldberg et al., 2010).

Preclinical studies have highlighted the potential of PNC-27 in treating various types of cancers. Its ability to induce cell death in cancer cells without harming normal cells presents a promising direction for cancer therapeutics. For instance, studies have shown PNC-27 to be effective against lung and breast cancers (Hoshino et al., 2011; Sarafraz-Yazdi et al., 2010).

The promising potential of PNC-27 warrants further exploration in clinical trials to evaluate its efficacy and safety in humans. Furthermore, investigation into its synergistic effects with other cancer treatments could provide a more holistic approach to cancer therapeutics. In conclusion, PNC-27 presents an exciting avenue for cancer research, offering a novel and targeted approach to cancer treatment.
