Exceeding a 100-fold concentration range starting at 10 nM, BI 2536 causes HeLa cells to accumulate with a 4N DNA content, indicative of a cell-cycle block in either G2 phase or mitosis. In addition to HeLa cells, BI 2536 potently inhibits the proliferation of a panel of 32 human cancer cell lines, representing diverse organ derivations (including carcinomas of the breast, colon, lung, pancreas, and prostate, melanomas, and hematopoietic cancers) and varied patterns of tumor suppressor or oncogene mutations (including RB1, TP53, PTEN, andKRAS status). The half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) values in this cell panel ranged 2-25 nM, whereas a concentration of 100 nM of BI 2536 is typically sufficient for inducing a complete mitotic arrest. The proliferation of exponentially growing hTERT-RPE1, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), and normal rat kidney (NRK) cells is blocked at EC50values ranging 12-31 nM, indicating a comparable sensitivity of cycling nontransformed cells to BI 2536[3].

Protocol
Cell proliferation assays are performed by incubation in the presence of various concentrations of BI 2536 (10 nM-1 μM) for 72 hr, and cell growth is assessed by the measurement of Alamar Blue dye conversion in a fluorescence spectrophotometer. Effective concentrations at which cellular growth is inhibited by 50% (EC50) are extrapolated from the dose-response curve fit[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Mice[3]
Female BomTac:NMRI-Foxn1nu mice are grafted subcutaneously with HCT 116 colon-carcinoma, NCI-H460, or A549 lung-carcinoma cells by subcutaneous injection, respectively, of 2×106, 1×106, and 1×107 cells into the flank of each mouse. When tumors reached a volume of approximately 50 mm3, animals are pair-matched into treatment and control groups of ten mice each. In regression experiments, treatment is not initiated until the mean tumor volume reached 500 mm3. BI 2536 is injected intravenously into the tail vein at the indicated dose and schedule. The administration volume is 10 mL per kg body weight. Tumor volumes are determined three times a week with a caliper. The results are converted to tumor volume (mm3) by the following formula: length×width2×π/6. The weight of the mice is determined as an indicator of tolerability on the same days. For statistical analysis, the treatment group is compared with the vehicle control group in a one-sided (decreasing) exact Wilcoxon test.
