Monomethyl auriSTATin E 是海兔毒素 10 的合成衍生物，是一种抗有丝分裂剂，通过阻断微管蛋白的聚合来抑制细胞分裂，并且还具有抑制抗体-药物偶联物的活性。

Monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), an antimitotic agent, inhibits cell division by blocking the polymerization of tubulin and also has inhibition of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) activity.

When coupled to cAC10, MMAE shows selective cytotoxicity in CD30+ cells, and induces G2/M-phase growth arrest and cell death through the induction of apoptosis. [1] When coupled to anti-CD79b antibody, anti–CD79b-vcMMAE has very potent and broad activity across a large panel of NHL cell lines in vitro. [2] When coupled to anti-HER2 antibody, hertuzumab-vc-MMAE can also be effectively internalized and potently kill HER2 over-expressing tumor cells. [3]

In the Karpas 299 ALCL model, cAC10-vcMMAE (1 mg/kg, i.v.) induces complete, durable tumor regression, while free MMAE (0.36 mg/kg) doesn't produce detectable antitumor activity. [1] In mouse xenograft models of NHL, anti–CD79b-vcMMAE (7 mg/kg, p.o.) strikingly results in sustained complete tumor remission. [2]

Cytotoxicity is measured using Alamar Blue dye reduction assay according to the manufacturer's directions. Briefly, a 40% solution (wt/vol) of Alamar Blue is freshly prepared in complete media just before cultures are added. Ninety-two hours after drug exposure, Alamar Blue solution is added to cells to constitute 10% culture volume. Cells are incubated for 4 hours, and dye reduction is measured on a Fusion HT fluorescent plate reader (Packard Instruments, Meriden, CT). (Only for Reference)
