CHIR-124 is 500- to 5,000-fold less active against other cell cycle kinases, such as cyclin-dependent kinase 2/cyclin A (0.19 μM), cdc2/cyclin B (0.51 μM), and cyclin-dependent kinase 4/cyclin D (2.1 μM). CHIR-124 (≥0.9 nM) in combination with SN-38 (≥0.42 nM) causes significant synergy or >10% deviation from additivity in human cancer cell lines expressing mutant p53, and these values overlap and fall below the IC50s for SN-38 (1.2×10-7 M) and CHIR-124 (2.2×10-7 M), respectively. Moreover, CHIR-124 (100 nM) abrogates the SN-38-induced S and G2-M phase cell cycle checkpoints. CHIR-124 (200 nM) leads to a 2.5-fold elevated level of cdc25A above that of the untreated HCT116 p53 / cells. The down-regulation of cdc25A induced by SN-38 is completely restored by concurrent or sequential treatment with CHIR-124, proving that CHIR-124 inhibits the Chk1-mediated destruction of cdc25A in whole cells[1]. CHIR-124 occupies the ATP-binding site, inhibits Chk1 (IC50, 0.3 nM) 2,000-fold more potently than Chk2 (IC50, 0.7 μM)[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: ≥ 0.71 mg/mL (1.69 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 0.71 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (7.1 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.

Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protocol
For the CHK1 assay, the kinase domain is expressed in Sf9 insect cells, and a biotinylated cdc25c peptide containing the consensus Chk1/Chk2 phosphorylation site (*)(biotin-[AHX]SGSGS*GLYRSPSMP-ENLNRPR[CONH2]) is used as the substrate. A dilution series of CHIR-124 is mixed with a kinase reaction buffer containing a final concentration of 30 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 2 mM DTT, 4 mM EDTA, 25 mM β-glycerophosphate, 5 mM MnCl2, 0.01% bovine serum albumin, 1.35 nM CHK1 kinase domain, 0.5 μM peptide substrate, and 1 μM unlabeled ATP, plus 5 nM 33P γ-labeled ATP (specific activity =2,000 Ci/mmol). Reactions and detection of the phosphate transfer are carried out by a radioactive method.

Severe combined immunodeficient mice harboring MDA-MD-435 tumor xenografts are randomized into the following treatment groups of 10: vehicle (captisol) alone, 5 mg/kg CPT-11, 10 mg/kg CHIR-124, 20 mg/kg CHIR-124, 5 mg/kg CPT-11 plus 10 mg/kg CHIR-124, or 5 mg/kg CPT-11 plus 20 mg/kg CHIR-124. Treatment is initiated on the day after randomization (day 1). CPT-11 is given i.p. daily (four times daily) ×5 on days 1 to 5, whereas CHIR-124 is given orally four times daily ×6 on days 2 to 7 in captisol. Percent tumor growth inhibition is defined as % T/C, where T = the treatment group mean, and C = the control group mean. In a similar study, tumors harvested from mice sacrificed on day 4 of treatment are examined for apoptosis by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick-end labeling staining and for mitotic index by immunofluorescence labeling with phospho-histone H3 antibody.
