    SFRP-1 expression is significantly inhibited by EZH2-EGFP and enhanced by siEZH2 or EZH2 inhibitor EPZ005687.

    EPZ005687 purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Sci Rep. 2016 Aug 19;6:29176.  [Abstract]

    EZH2 level induced by IL-1β is decreased following pretreatment with the EZH2 inhibitor EPZ005687 (5.6 μM), with a concomitant upregulation of SOX9 (P < 0.05). (A) The normal chondrocytes (P2) are treated with IL-1β (10 ng/mL) for 24 hours to induce chondrocyte pathological change followed by knockdown by siEZH2 or treatment by pharmacological inhibitor EPZ005687. The effect of each treatment is investigated by Western-blotting and quantitative analysis (B,C).

    Description

    EPZ005687 is a potent and selective inhibitor of EZH2 with Ki of 24 nM, and has 50-fold selectivity against EZH1 and 500-fold selectivity against 15 other protein methyltransferases.

    IC50 & Target[1]

    EZH2

    24 nM (Ki)

    In Vitro

    EPZ005687 shows concentration-dependent inhibition of PRC2 enzymatic activity with an IC50 value of 54±5 nM. EPZ005687 specifically inhibits H3K27 methylation in lymphoma cells. EPZ005687 has a notable effect on proliferation of the EZH2Y641F-bearing cell line. EPZ005687 decreases proliferation in mutant but not wild-type EZH2 lymphoma cells[1]. EPZ005687 (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µM) induces an obvious apoptosis of U937 cells in a dose-dependent manner. EPZ005687 inhibits obviously the proliferation of U937 cells but has weak effect on the proliferation of NBMCD34+ cells. EPZ005687 induces G1 phase blocking and decreases the percentage of cells in S phase in U937 cells. In addition, EPZ005687 produces obviously depletion of H3K27 methylation in U937 cells, but hardly has effect on the H3K27 methylation of NBMCD34+ cells[2].

    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: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (3.09 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (16.7 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.
    • Protocol 2

      Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

      Solubility: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (3.09 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (16.7 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.

    Kinase Assay
    [1]

    10-point curves of EPZ005687 are made using serial 3-fold dilution in DMSO, beginning at 2.5 mM (final top concentration of compound is 50 μM and the DMSO is 2%). A 1 μL aliquot the inhibitor dilution series is spotted in a 384-well microtiter plate. The 100% inhibition control consisted of 1 mM final concentration of the product inhibitor S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH). Compound is incubated for 30 min with 40 μL per well of 5 nM PRC2 (final assay concentration in 50 μL is 4 nM) in 1X assay buffer (20 mM Bicine [pH 7.6], 0.002% Tween 20, 0.005% Bovine Skin Gelatin and 0.5 mM DTT). 10 μL per well of substrate mix comprising assay buffer 3H-SAM, unlabeled SAM, and peptide representing histone H3 residues 21-44 containing C-terminal biotin (appended to a C-terminal amide-capped lysine) are added to initiate the reaction. Reactions are incubated for 90 min at room temperature and quenched with 10 μL per well of 600 μM unlabeled SAM, then transferred to 384-well Flashplate and washed after 30 min.

    • 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.
