PW-12 is efficacious in a GEM model of MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma. Tumor-bearing TH-MYCN mice were treated for 14 days with either 25 mg/kg of PW-12 (n = 3) or vehicle alone (n = 3). (A) Western blot for MYCN protein from treated tumors confirm that PW-12 is effective at downregulating MYCN protein production. (B) Tumor size was significantly reduced in treated animals (* represents p < 0.05). (C) Histology for Ki67 and c-Caspase 3 shows increase in apoptosis and decrease in proliferation in treated tumors.
