Description

Ecteinascidin 770 (ET-770) is a 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid with potent anti-cancer activities; inhibits U373MG cells with an IC50 of 4.83 nM.

IC50 & Target

IC50: 4.83 nM (U373MG cell)[1]; 0.6 nM (HCT116 cell), 2.4 nM (QG56 cell), 0.81 nM (DU145)[2]

In Vitro

Ecteinascidin 770 induces apoptosis of U373MG cells. The IC50 concentration of ecteinascidin 770 for killing U373MG glioblastoma cells in culture by using the MTT assay is 4.83 nM by a 72 hour-treatment[1]. The IC50 values against human cell lines HCT116, QG56, and DU145 are 0.6, 2.4, and 0.81 nM, respectively[2]. ET-770 is shown to enhance anoikis response of human lung cancer H23 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Ecteinascidin 770 sensitizes the cells by activating the p53 protein, which in turn down-regulates anti-apoptotic myeloid cell leukemia sequence-1 (MCL1) and up-regulates BCL2-associated X protein (BAX) proteins. However, B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL2) proteins are not significantly affected by Ecteinascidin 770. The anoikis sensitization of ET-770 is observed in H460 lung cancer cells[3].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (3.24 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.

Cell Assay
[3]

Ecteinascidin 770 is dissolved in DMSO and diluted with appropriate medium. H23 and H460 cells are seeded into 96-well plates at 1×105 cell/mL for 24 h and then treated with different concentrations of ecteinascidin 770 for 24 h. Cells are then incubated with 20 μM of XTT reagent for a further 4 h at 37°C. The intensity of the formazan product is measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader. The cell viability is calculated from the optical density (OD) ratio of treated to non-treated control cells and is presented as a percentage to that of the non-treated controls[3].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
