    In Vitro

    Investigation of the inhibitory power of TBB with a panel of 33 protein kinases shows highest potency for CK2 (casein kinase 2) (human CK2: IC50=1.6 μM at 100 μM ATP). TBB also inhibits three other kinases with less potency: CDK2 (IC50=15.6 μM), phosphorylase kinase (IC50=8.7 μM) and glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) (IC50=11.2 μM). All other kinases tested have IC50 values 50-fold greater than that for CK2[1]. The viability of the androgen insensitive PC-3 cells may be diminished by TBB (60 μM TBB) acting either alone or combined with anticancer agents CPT or TRAIL when a proper time schedule of the administration is applied. The time schedule-dependent activity of TBB does not come from its effect on apoptosis in PC-3 cells[2]. TBB is an ATP/GTP competitive inhibitor of protein kinase casein kinase-2 (CK2), has been examined against a panel of 33 protein kinases, either Ser/Thr- or Tyr-specific. In the presence of 10 μM TBB (and 100 μM ATP) only CK2 is drastically inhibited (>85%) whereas three kinases (phosphorylase kinase, glycogen synthase kinase 3L and cyclin-dependent kinase 2/cyclin A) underwent moderate inhibition, with IC50 values one-two orders of magnitude higher than CK2 (IC50=0.9 μM). TBB also inhibits endogenous CK2 in cultured Jurkat cells[3].

    In Vivo

    The extent of retinal neovascularization in a mouse OIR model is reduced by approximately 60% after treatment with TBB (6 days at 60 mg/kg per day)[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 (5.75 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 (5.75 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.

    Cell Assay
    [2]

    PC-3 or HeLa cells are cultured routinely in RPMI-1640 and DMEM media, respectively, which are supplemented with 10% FBS, Penicillin (100 U/mL) and Streptomycin (100 μg/mL) at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2. Cells are seeded at 5×104 cells/well (PC-3) or 2×104 (HeLa) in 24-wells plates and cultured for 72 h. TBB (final concentration 60 μM), CPT (final concentration 5.8 nM), 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG; final concentration 0.5 mM) or TRAIL (final concentration 13.3 ng/mL) are added to the medium individually or in a combination and the cells are cultured for additional time, indicated on each figure. After treatment, the medium with the agent is removed and 500 μL of MTT mixture (0.5 mg/mL for PC-3 and 5.0 mg/mL for HeLa cells in medium without phenol red) is added to each well and incubated for an additional 1 h at 37°C. The formazan crystals are diluted in 250 μL of DMSO. The absorbance is measured at 570 nm[2].

    [4]

    Mice[4]
    The heterozygous C57BL/6J mice are used. Emodin and TBB are injected intraperitoneally in volumes of 50 μL or less per mouse at doses of 15 to 30 mg/kg body weight, twice daily, starting from day 11. Control mice are injected with PEG-Tween vehicle alone.

    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.
