KW-2478
Based on 4 publication(s) in Google Scholar
KW-2478 is an HSP90 inhibitor (IC50 = 3.8 nM). KW-2478 inhibits the growth and induces apoptosis in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cells and liver cancer cells. KW-2478 weakens the BCR/ABL and MAPK signaling pathways, leading to increased p27 and p21 expression and decreased cyclin B1 expression. KW-2478 downregulates STAT3 expression. KW-2478 may be used in research on cancers such as CML and liver cancer.

HSP90α 3.8 nM (IC50) |
KW-2478 is an inhibitor of Hsp90, with an IC50 of 3.8 nM for Hsp90α. KW-2478 shows anti-proliferative activity against multiple myeloma (MM) and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL), with GI50s of 0.30 μM (OPM-2/GFP), 0.34 μM (KMS-11), 0.39 μM (RPMI 8226), 0.12 μM (NCI-H929), 0.36 μM (Raji), 0.098 μM (SR), and 0.33 μM μM (SC-1). KW-2478 also inhibits the transcription of c-Maf and Cyclin D1 genes by mainly suppressing the function of Cdk9[1].

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: ≥ 5 mg/mL (8.70 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 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
The cells are plated into 96-well plates and treated with KW-2478. After 72 hours of cultivation, cell viability is determined using WST-1. WST reagent is added to the wells, followed by incubation for 4 hours at 37°C. After that, the absorbance at 450 nm with reference at 650 nm is measured with a microplate spectrophotometer[1].

Mice[1]
Severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice are intraperitoneally injected with anti-asialo GM1 antibody. The next day, all mice are subcutaneously inoculated with NCI-H929 cells (1×107 cells) suspended in PBS containing 50% of Matrigel. After 10 days, tumor volume is measured using the Antitumor test system II, a computer-operated system including software and instruments. SCID mice with tumors (190 to 290 mm3) are selected. After randomly grouping, saline (vehicle) or KW-2478 is intravenously administered to mice once or twice daily for 5 days. 17-AAG is intravenously administered to mice. Tumor volume is calculated by the Anti-tumor test system II as follows: Tumor volume=DL×DS×DS×1/2. Fourteen days after the initial administration, blood samples of each mouse are obtained, followed by measurement of serum M protein (Ig kappa chain) with Human Kappa-b&f ELISA Quantitation Kit. The statistical analysis is performed using SAS software[1].
