SJ 172550, or MDMX Inhibitor II, is a potent inhibitor of MDMX that effectively disrupts the interaction between MDMX and p53 peptide, with an EC50 value of 4.3 µM. SJ 172550 achieves its inhibitory effect by forming a reversible covalent cysteine adduct within the p53-binding domain of MDMX. This interaction locks MDMX into a conformation that hinders its ability to bind with p53. The inhibitory action of SJ 172550 has significant implications. It induces apoptosis, triggers an increase in the expression of p53 target genes, and ultimately leads to p53-dependent cell death in retinoblastoma cells.
