MCF10A cells were plated at equal low density and either mock treated or treated with 31 nM BI-1347, in the presence or absence of 1.25 µM or 10 µM XL413 over a 7-day period. Representative image of plates stained with crystal violet. The results showed that adding the CDK8 inhibitor BI-1347 to MCF10A cells only marginally inhibited their proliferation; in contrast, BI-1347 strongly reduced cell growth when BI-1347 was combined with either 1.25 µM or 10 µM of the CDC7i XL413.

MCF10A cells were mock treated or treated for 24 hours with three different CDK8 inhibitors: 31 nM BI-1347, 5 µM Senexin A, or 100 nM CCT-251921, alone or in combination with either 10 µM XL413 or 0.3 µM TAK-931 CDC7 inhibitors. Cells were labelled with EdU for last 30 minutes and DNA synthesis, DNA content and cell cycle distribution were assessed by flow cytometry.

MCF10A cells were either mock treated, treated with 31 nM BI-1347 alone, with 10 µM XL413 with or in combination of both or with 2mM Hydroxyurea (HU) for 24 hours. Whole cell extracts, or soluble and chromatin-enriched fractions were analysed by immunoblotting for the indicated proteins. TPS (total protein stain) is used as a loading control.

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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.84 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.84 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
