MKI-2
MKI-2 is a selective MASTL inhibitor with an IC50 of 37.44 nM. MKI-2 induces mitotic catastrophe resulting from the modulation of the MASTL-PP2A axis in breast cancer cells. MKI-2 reduces phospho-ENSA, total, phospho-c-Myc levels. MKI-2 inhibts cancer cells proliferation, migration and induces DNA damage. MKI-2 inhibits germinal vesicle breakdown in mouse oocytes. MKI-2 can be used for the research of cancer, such as breast cancer.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
MKI-2 potently inhibits recombinant MASTL kinase activity with an IC50 of 37.44 nM[1].
MKI-2 (14 h) inhibits cellular MASTL activity in MCF7 breast cancer cells with an IC50 of 142.7 nM, as measured by reduced phospho-ENSA levels[1].
MKI-2 (100 nM) is selective for MASTL, as it does not inhibit recombinant ROCK1, PKACα, or p70S6K kinases and only slightly inhibits AKT1 at a concentration of 100 nM[1].
MKI-2 (250 nM; 12-24 h) modulates the MASTL-PP2A-c-Myc axis in MCF7, BT549, and MDA-MB-468 breast cancer cells by increasing PP2A activity, reducing phospho-ENSA and total, phospho-c-Myc levels[1].
MKI-2 (250 nM; 24 h) induces mitotic catastrophe in MCF7 breast cancer cells at 250 nM for 24 h, as evidenced by mitotic arrest, altered apoptotic and increased DNA damage marker (γ-H2AX) levels, and increased aberrant nuclear cells[1].
MKI-2 (15.63-1000 nM; 72 h) inhibits the proliferation of MCF7, BT549, MDA-MB-468, and 4T1 breast cancer cells with IC50 values ranging from 56.53 nM to 124.6 nM after 72 h of treatment[1].
MKI-2 (6.25-25 nM) inhibits colony, 3D spheroid, and mammosphere formation of MCF7 breast cancer cells[1].
MKI-2 (250 nM; 24 h) inhibits the migration and invasion of BT549 breast cancer cells at 250 nM for 24 h[1].
MKI-2 (250 nM-2 μM; 12-48 h) reduces the percentage of GVBD and has no significant effects on mouse oocytes viability[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Solvent & Solubility
In Vitro:
DMSO : 100 mg/mL (262.17 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.55 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.
