In Vivo

Animals receiving chemoradiation + Marimastat (BB2516) (8.7 mg/kg) have statistically significant delayed growth, compared to animals receiving chemoradiation alone. Marimastat (BB2516) may work in combination with chemotherapy and radiation to inhibit tumor growth[4].

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 (7.54 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 (7.54 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.

Kinase Assay
[1]

Compounds 1, 2, 7-9 and 11-16 are pre-incubated with MMP-1 or MMP-3 (10 nM) at different concentrations (0-10 μM) in a mixture of Tris-HCl (50 mM, pH 7.5), NaCl (150 mM), CaCl2 (10 mM), NaN3 (0.02%) and Brij-35 (0.05%) for 1 hour at 37°C. Residual activity is measured using the fluorogenic MMP substrate (2 μM) by fluorescence increase (emission at 393 nm and excitation at 325 nm) on a fluorescence plate reader. The data are fitted to the tight binding inhibitor equation: v=[(E-I-k+[(E-I-k)2+4Ek]1/2)/(2E)], where v is the velocity of the reaction, E is the enzyme concentration, I is the initial inhibitor concentration, and k is the apparent inhibition constant, using the software Prism.

Animal Administration
[3]

Three-month-old female nude mice are inoculated using a trochar needle with 2 mm2 established SCC-1 tissue subcutaneously in the flank. Treatment started once the tumors are 5-6 mm in diameter. Mice are randomLy divided into groups of 8 mice to receive different treatments: (1) control, (2) marimastat alone, (3) cisplatin + radiation in combination and (4) marimastat + cisplatin + radiation in combination. All animalsreceive a 14-day osmotic pump containing dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) as a control for both the pump and vehicle. Animals treated with marimastatreceive the same osmotic pump containing 200 μL of marimastat with DMSO to result in a daily dose of 8.7 mg/kg 10 days after the initiation of treatment. Lead-shielded animalsreceive 8 Gy of 60Co radiation to the exposed tumor, divided into 4 fractions on days 8, 12, 16 and 20. A dose of 8 Gy is chosen because 7.5 Gy (7,500 rad) has been shown in previous experiments to inhibit tumor growth without being a curative dose. Animals receive 4 intraperitoneal doses of cisplatin (3 mg/kg) 1 h before each fraction of radiation. Tumors are measured biweekly for 32 days. Potential treatment toxicity is monitored using mouse weight. Tumor size (surface area equal to product of two largest diameters) and regression rates are determined in each treatment group. After 32 days, tumors are harvested for immunohistochemistry. Day 32 is chosen due to death of control group animals and euthanization of animals showing clinical signs of illness to allow for statistical analysis of data acquired from surviving animals.

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.
