Description

FMK-MEA is a potent and selective p90 Ribosomal S6 Kinase (RSK) inhibitor.

IC50 & Target

RSK2

 

In Vitro

FMK-MEA is a water-soluble derivative of fmk. FMK-MEA treatment inhibits RSK2 kinase activity in diverse, highly invasive human cancer cell lines including 212LN, M4e, A549, and SKBR3 cells. Treatment with the RSK-specific inhibitor FMK-MEA significantly attenuates RSK2 activity, as assessed by the phosphorylation levels of Ser-386 and the consequent invasive ability of A549 cells[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

FMK-MEA treatment (80 mg/kg/day for 16 days by intraperitoneal injection) in highly metastatic M4e cell xenograft nude mice results in a significant attenuation of LN metastasis. FMK-MEA treatment has no effect on the tumor size, and the proliferation rate of the primary tumor[1].

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 (6.26 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.
  • Protocol 2

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

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.26 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 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.

Method for preparing in vivo working solution for animal experiments: Take μL DMSO stock solution, add μL . μL , mix evenly, next add μL Tween 80, mix evenly, then add μL Saline.
 If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.
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.

Animal Administration

Mice[1]

For FMK-MEA treatment, each of the nude mice (athymic nu/nu, female, 4-6 weeks old) are injected with 0.5×106cells/100 μL of PBS submandibular to the mylohyoid muscle. On day 5 after injection, mice are divided into two groups with similar average weights with each group receiving either FMK-MEA or PBS. Each mouse is administered 80 mg/kg of FMK-MEA daily by intraperitoneal injection from 5 days after the xenograft for 16 days total. The control group receives PBS alone on the same schedule. Tumor growth is recorded. Mice are sacrificed after 16 days post drug treatment[1].

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.
