Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is used in clinical practice to mobilize cells from the bone marrow to the blood; however, it is not always effective. We show that cobalt protoporphyrin IX (CoPP) increases plasma concentrations of G-CSF, IL-6, and MCP-1 in mice, triggering the mobilization of granulocytes and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC). Compared with recombinant G-CSF, CoPP mobilizes higher number of HSPC and mature granulocytes. In contrast to G-CSF, CoPP does not increase the number of circulating T cells. Transplantation of CoPP-mobilized peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) results in higher chimerism and faster hematopoietic reconstitution than transplantation of PBMC mobilized by G-CSF. Although CoPP is used to activate Nrf2/HO-1 axis, the observed effects are Nrf2/HO-1 independent. Concluding, CoPP increases expression of mobilization-related cytokines and has superior mobilizing efficiency compared with recombinant G-CSF. This observation could lead to the development of new strategies for the treatment of neutropenia and HSPC transplantation.

A group of styrylquinolines were synthesized and tested for their anti-proliferative activity. Anti-proliferative activity was evaluated against the human colon carcinoma cell lines that had a normal expression of the p53 protein (HCT116 p53+/+) and mutants with a disabled TP53 gene (HCT116 p53-/-) and against the GM 07492 normal human fibroblast cell line. A SAR study revealed the importance of Cl and OH as substituents in the styryl moiety. Several of the compounds that were tested were found to have a marked anti-proliferative activity that was similar to or better than doxorubicin and were more active against the p53 null than the wild type cells. The cellular localization tests and caspase activity assays suggest a mechanism of action through the mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis in a p53-independent manner. The activity of the styrylquinoline compounds may be associated with their DNA intercalating ability.
