    Description

    ABT-737, a BH3 mimetic, is a potent Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and Bcl-w inhibitor with EC50s of 30.3 nM, 78.7 nM, and 197.8 nM, respectively. ABT-737 induces the disruption of the BCL-2/BAX complex and BAK-dependent but BIM-independent activation of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. ABT-737 induces autophagy and has the potential for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) research[1][2][3].

    In Vitro

    ABT-737 binds BCL-2, BCL-XL, and BCL-W with high affinity (Ki<1 nM) but binds weakly (Ki>460 nM) to other antiapoptotic BCL-2 family members, including MCL-1 and BFL-1. ABT-737 binds the BH3-binding groove of BCL-XL and BCL-2[1].
    ABT-737 (100 nM; 1-72 hours) induces apoptosis and synergizes with chemotherapy in HL-60 cells[1].
    ABT-737 (5, 7.5, 10 μM; 72 hours) causes approximately 80% HCT116 cell death. The BAX knockout variant is completely resistant to ABT-737[1].
    ABT-737 has no effect on cell cycle distribution. ABT-737 disrupts BCL-2/BAX heterodimerization and induces BAX conformational change in HL-60 leukemic cells[1].
    ABT-737 induces a BAX/BAK-dependent impairment of maximal O2 consumption rate in sensitive cells. Stable BCL-2 overexpression in MCF10A cells induces an ABT-737-sensitive primed for death state. ABT-737 induces dose-dependent impairment of maximal O2 consumption rate in B-cell lymphoma cells[3].

    In Vivo

    ABT-737 (20, 30 mg/kg/day; i.p.; for 21 days) suppresses the leukemia burden by 48% and 53% at the 20 and 30 mg/kg dose levels, respectively, in four- to six-week-old CB.17 Scid mice with human leukemia KG-1 cells[1].
    ABT-737 significantly extends survival of mice in this aggressive leukemia model[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.

    • Protocol 1

    Kinase Assay
    [1]

    To determine the binding affinity of GST-BCL-2 family proteins to the FITC-conjugated BH3 domain of BIM (FITC-Ahx-DMRPEIWIAQELRRIGDEFNAYYAR), FPAs are performed as follows. Briefly, 100 nM of GST-BCL-2 family fusion proteins are incubated with serial dilutions of ABT-737 in PBS for 2 min. Then, 20 nM of FITC-BIM BH3 peptide (FITC-Ahx-DMRPEIWIAQELRRIGDEFNAYYAR) is added. Fluorescence polarization is measured using an Analyst TM AD Assay Detection System after 10 min using the 96-well black plate. IC50s are determined using GraphPad Prism software.

    Cells are treated with ABT-737, ABT-263, or vehicle (DMSO) for 4 h in XF24 assay medium (6×104 MCF10A cells, see medium composition below) or RPMI 1640 medium (1×106 B-cell lymphoma cells) and apoptosis is analyzed by Annexin-V-binding/PI exclusion or by sub-diploid nuclei determination. FACS analysis is performed on Becton Dickinson FACScan or FACScalibur instruments. Data analysis is performed with CellQuest software.

    Animal Administration
    [1]

    For intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration, 1 g/mL stock solution of ABT-737 in DMSO is added to a mixture of 30% propylene glycol, 5% Tween 80, 65% D5W (5% dextrose in water) (pH 4−5; final concentration of DMSO ≤ 1%). Mice injected with FD/ΔRaf-1:ER cells are treated with either ABT-737 (20 and 30 mg/kg/mouse every day i.p. for 21 days starting on day 1 post-cell injection (n=9-10 mice per group) or vehicle or left untreated (control); mice injected with human KG-1 cells are treated with 30 mg/kg ABT-737 starting on day 18 post-cell injection. For noninvasive imaging of FD/ΔRaf-1:ER-luc cells, anesthetized mice are injected with 150 mg/kg of D-luciferin and placed for imaging in the In Vivo Imaging System with total imaging time of 2 min.

    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.
