Biochem/physiol Actions

S,S′-1,4-phenylenebis(1,2-ethanediyl)bis-isothiourea (PBIT) is an iNOS (inducible nitric oxide synthase) inhibito. It is capable of inhibiting the multiplication of breast cancer cell lines expressing high levels of JARIDB1.
PBIT is a potent inhibitor of JARID1B (KDM5B) histone lysine demethylase that inhibits removal of H3K4me3 in UACC-812 cells. PBIT inhibits proliferation of cells overexpressing JARID1B. PBIT is selective for JARID1 enzymes and does not inhibit demethylases UTX or JMJD3.

Metformin has been tested as an anti-cancer therapy with potential to improve conventional chemotherapy. However, in some cases, metformin fails to sensitize tumors to chemotherapy. Here we test if the presence of P53 could predict the activity of metformin as
