Ansamitocin P-3 (Antibiotic C 15003P3) potently inhibits the proliferation of MCF-7, HeLa, EMT-6/AR1 and MDA-MB-231 cells in culture with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration of 20±3, 50±0.5, 140±17, and 150±1.1 pM, respectively. Further, Ansamitocin P3 is found to bind to purified tubulin in vitro with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 1.3±0.7 μM. The binding of Ansamitocin P3 induces conformational changes in tubulin. Ansamitocin P3 inhibits the proliferation of MCF-7, HeLa, EMT-6/AR1 and MDA-MB-231 cells in culture in a concentration dependent manner. Flow cytometric analysis of PI-stained cells suggests that Ansamitocin P3 inhibits the cell cycle progression of MCF-7 cells in G2/M phase. For example, 26, 50 and 70% of the cells are found to be in G2/M phase in the absence and presence of 50 and 100 pM Ansamitocin P3, respectively[2].

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 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (3.94 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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (3.94 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic
This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 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 (25.0 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.

Protocol
MCF-7, EMT-6/AR1, HeLa and MDA-MB-231 cells are seeded in 96 well plates. Subsequently, cells are incubated with vehicle (0.1% DMSO) or different concentrations (1-1000 pM) of Ansamitocin P3 for 48 h in MCF-7 cells and 24 h for EMT-6/AR1, HeLa and MDA-MB-231 cells, respectively. The half maximal inhibitory concentration of cell proliferation (IC50) for Ansamitocin P3 is determined by sulforhodamine B assay. Four independent experiments are carried out in MCF-7 cells and three independent sets of experiments are performed in EMT-6/AR1, HeLa and MDA-MB-231 cells[2].
