Formulation Components Tat48–60 CPP + sihsp90α + 17-AAG
Size Nm
Zeta Mv
Model Scope in_vitro
Model Type in vitro
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells U87-MG glioblastoma cells; SVGp12 non-tumorigenic cells used as specificity/toxicity comparison
Animal Model
Administration Route cell culture incubation; 17-AAG added after 4 h
Output Type hsp90α knockdown; Hsp90α protein reduction; Akt activity; viability; cell-cycle arrest
Output Value Combination: up to 95% hsp90α mRNA knockdown, 98% Hsp90α protein reduction, 84% Akt activity attenuation, and 88% U87-MG growth inhibition
Output Units
Output Notes Functional in vitro RNAi effect was demonstrated and enhanced by 17-AAG; because this row is in vitro, delivery_success_class remains 0
Toxicity Notes Combination caused minimal cytotoxicity in non-tumorigenic SVGp12 cells (≤~7% growth inhibition); CPP alone showed minimal long-term toxicity
