Bay 65-1942 free base

Cell viability is determined by seeding MYL-R cells on a 96-well plate at 4×10⁴ cells/well in 100 µL RPMI growth medium supplemented with kinase inhibitors. Growth media and kinase inhibitors are replenished at 24 hours, and at 48 hours. 20 µL of MTS assay reagent is added to each well. The plate is returned to the incubator for approximately 1 hour and the absorbance at 490 nm is recorded. For combination index (CI) experiments, cells are grown and assayed. To determine AZD6244 and BAY 65-1942 (10 µM) dose-effects, cells are treated with a series of three-fold dilutions of each drug singly, or in combination while maintaining a constant ratio of 1:2, respectively. Cell viability results are analyzed to derive CI values. The CI values from three independent experiments are averaged^[2].

Mice^[1]
Male C57BL/6 mice, 8-10 wk of age are used. To investigate IKKβ inhibition in myocardial IR injury, mice are subjected to 30 min of cardiac ischemia followed by varying periods of reperfusion. An intraperitoneal injection of Bay 65-1942 (5 mg/kg) at appropriate dosing time points is administered. Nontreatment groups receive a vehicle of 10% cremaphor in water. In treatment groups, Bay 65-1942 is delivered either prior to ischemia, at the time of reperfusion, or 2 h after reperfusion injury. Infarct size is measured 24 h after reperfusion injury in sham, vehicle, and each treatment group. To confirm myocardial injury, serum creatine kinase-muscle-brain fraction (CK-MB) levels are measured 1 h after reperfusion in animals pretreated with Bay 65-1942.
