In Vitro

Silmitasertib (CX-4945) causes cell-cycle arrest and selectively induces apoptosis in cancer cells relative to normal cells, attenuates PI3K/Akt signalingand, and the antiproliferative activity of Silmitasertib (CX-4945) is correlated with expression levels of the CK2α catalytic subunit, Attenuation of PI3K/Akt signaling^[1]. Silmitasertib (CX-4945) with PS-341 treatment prevents leukemic cells from engaging a functional UPR in order to buffer the PS-341-mediated proteotoxic stress in ER lumen, and decreases pro-survival ER chaperon BIP/Grp78 expression^[2]. Silmitasertib (CX-4945) induces cytotoxicity and apoptosis, and exerts anti-proliferative effects in hematological tumors by downregulating CK2 expression and suppressing activation of CK2-mediated PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathways^[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Silmitasertib (CX-4945) (25 or 75 mg/kg, p.o.) is well tolerated and demonstrated robust antitumor activity with concomitant reductions of the mechanism-based biomarker phospho-p21 (T145) in murine xenograft models^[1].

Stock Solution Working Solution

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

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline

Solubility: 2.08 mg/mL (5.95 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.08 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

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.

Protocol 2

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

Solubility: 2.08 mg/mL (5.95 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.08 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

Working Solution

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly:

It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.

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

Add each solvent one by one: 0.5% CMC-Na/0.5% Tween-80 in Saline water

Solubility: 9.95 mg/mL (28.45 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

Protocole

Cell Assay^[1]

Various cell lines are seeded at a density of 3,000 cells per well 24 hours prior to treatment, in appropriate media, and then treated with indicated concentrations of Silmitasertib (CX-4945). Suspensions cells are seeded and treated on the same day. Following 4 days of incubation, Alamar Blue (20 μL, 10% of volume per well) is added and the cells are further incubated at 37°C for 4-5 hours. Fluorescence with excitation wavelength at 530-560 nm and emission wavelength at 590 nm is measured.

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Administration^[1]

Xenografts are initiated by subcutaneous injection of BxPC-3 cells into the right hind flank region of each mouse or BT-474 cells are injected into the mammary fat pad of mice implanted with estrogen pellets. When tumors reach a designated volume of 150-200 mm³, animals are randomized and divided into groups of 9 to 10 mice per group. Silmitasertib (CX-4945) is administered by oral gavage twice daily at 25 or 75 mg/kg for 31 and 35 consecutive days for the BT-474 and BxPC-3 models, respectively. Tumor volumes and body weights are measured twice weekly. The length and width of the tumor are measured with calipers and the volume calculated using the following formula: tumor volume=(length × width²)/2.

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
