(5Z,2E)-CU-3
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
(5Z,2E)-CU-3 is an isomer of CU-3 (HY-121638). CU-3 is a DGKα inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.6 μM. CU-3 competitively reduces DGKα’s affinity for ATP via binding to the enzyme’s catalytic region. CU-3 induces apoptosis in cancer cells. CU-3 promotes T-cell activation and enhances IL-2 production. CU-3 can be used for the research of hepatocellular carcinoma and cervical cancer.

Biological Activity
|
IL-2 |
CU-3 potently and selectively inhibits purified pig DGK α activity with an IC50 of 0.6 μM by targeting the catalytic domain and competitively interfering with ATP binding[1].
CU-3 (2 μM; 24 h) inhibits intracellular DGK α activity in COS-7 cells, reducing phosphatidic acid production induced by overexpressed constitutively active DGK α[1].
CU-3 (5 μM; 24 h) induces apoptosis in HepG2 and HeLa cancer cells, as measured by increased caspase-3/7 activity, without causing nonspecific toxicity to noncancerous COS-7 cells[1].
CU-3 (5 μM; 5 min) enhances Con A-induced IL-2 mRNA expression in Jurkat T cells by inhibiting DGK α, promoting T-cell activation[1].

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : 20 mg/mL (50.96 mM; ultrasonic and warming and heat to 60°C; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 2 years; -20°C, 1 year. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 2 years. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 year.

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: 2 mg/mL (5.10 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic
This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
