Description

IC₅₀ & Target

IC50: 3 μM (Rap1A, in vivo), > 20 μM (Ha-Ras, in vivo)^[3]

In Vitro

RhoA inhibitor (GGTI298 Trifluoroacetate) significantly reduces cAMP agonist-stimulated apical K+ conductance^[1]. Knockdown of DR4 abolishes NF-κB activation, leading to sensitization of DR5-dependent apoptosis induced by the combination of GGTI298 Trifluoroacetate and TRAIL. GGTI298 Trifluoroacetate/TRAIL activates NF-κB and inhibits Akt. Knockdown of DR5, prevents GGTI298/TRAIL-induced IκBα and p-Akt reduction, suggesting that DR5 mediates reduction of IκBα and p-Akt induced by GGTI298/TRAIL. In contrast, DR4 knockdown further facilitates GGTI298/TRAIL-induced p-Akt reduction^[2].

In Vivo

The vivo mouse ileal loop experiments show fluid accumulation is reduced in a dose-dependent manner by TRAM-34, GGTI298 Trifluoroacetate, or H1152 when inject together with cholera toxin into the loop^[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 (4.21 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 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 (4.21 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 3

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% Corn Oil
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.21 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Kinase Assay ^[2]	The given cells are lysed with reporter lysis buffer and subjected to luciferase activity assay using luciferase assay system in a luminometer. Relative luciferase activity is normalized to protein content^[2]. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Cell Assay ^[2]	Cells are seeded in 96-well cell culture plates and treated the next day with the agents (including GGTI298 Trifluoroacetate).

Animal Administration ^[1]	The ileal loop experiment is performed in 6-8-week-old mice by a modifing rabbit ileal loop assay. Following gut sterilization, the animals are kept fasted for 24 h prior to surgery and fed only water ad libitum. Anesthesia is induced by a mixture of ketamine (35 mg/kg of body weight) and xylazine (5 mg/kg of body weight). A laparotomy is performed, and the experimental loops of 5-cm length are constricted at the terminal ileum by tying with non-absorbable silk. The following fluids are instilled in each loop by means of a tuberculin syringe fitting with a disposable needle through the ligated end of the loop: pure CT (1 μg; positive control), saline (negative control), CT (1 μg)+TRAM-34 (different concentrations in μM), CT (1 μg)+ H1152 (1 μM), and CT (1 μg)+GGTI298 Trifluoroacetate (different concentrations in μM), a specific inhibitor of Rap1A. The intestine is returned to the peritoneum, and the mice are sutured and returned to their cages. After 6 h, these animals are sacrificed by cervical dislocation, and the loops are excised^[1].
