MK256
MK256 is an orally active, selective CDK8 inhibitor and CDK19/cyclin C inhibitor with IC50 values of 2.5 nM and 3.3 nM, respectively. MK256 downregulates phosphorylated STAT1 (S727), STAT5 (S726), MCL-1 mRNA and CCL2 mRNA. MK256 exhibits anti-tumor activity in acute myeloid leukemia. MK256 can be used for the research of acute myeloid leukemia.

In Vitro
MK256 is a potent and selective cell-free CDK8/cyclin C inhibitor (IC50 = 2.5 nM) and CDK19/cyclin C inhibitor (IC50 = 3.3 nM), with approximately 40-fold reduced potency against the closest off-target CDK9[1].
MK256 (50-500 nM; 6 days) induces dose-dependent differentiation of CD34+/CD38− AML TEX leukemia stem cells, which is confirmed by the decreased expression of stem cell markers (CD34, CD93) and increased expression of differentiation markers (CD38, CD117) after 6 days of treatment[1].
MK256 (administered for 7 consecutive days) inhibits the proliferation of AML cell lines in vitro with differential potency; it exhibits the strongest activity against MV-4-11 (IC50 = 23 nM) and MOLM-14 (IC50 = 24 nM) cells, which have high baseline levels of phosphorylated STAT1 (S727) and STAT5 (S726)[1].
MK256 (300-1000 nM) downregulates the expression of CCL2 mRNA in MOLM-14, MV-4-11 and KG-1 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines, and also downregulates the expression of MCL-1 mRNA in KG-1 cells and MOLM-14 cells treated with high concentrations[1].
MK256 (0.3-3000 nM; 2-48 h) downregulates serine-phosphorylated STAT1, STAT3 and STAT5, reduces MCL-1 levels, and induces apoptosis in MV-4-11 and MOLM-14 AML cell lines in a dose- and time-dependent manner, with no effect on tyrosine-phosphorylated STAT[1].

Parmacokinetics
In Vivo
When administered in combination with Venetoclax (HY-15531) at 25 mg/kg once daily at doses of 10 mg/kg or 50 mg/kg, MK256 (10-50 mg/kg; p.o.; once daily; 5 days on/2 days off schedule) enhances the anti-tumor growth efficacy of Venetoclax against AML tumors in the MOLM-14 xenograft model, with the tumor growth inhibition rate reaching 70% in the 50 mg/kg dose group[1].
MK256 (10-100 mg/kg; p.o.; single administration) dose-dependently downregulates phosphorylated STAT1S727, STAT3S727 and STAT5S726 in MOLM-14 AML xenografts[1].

Protocole
-
RNA extraction experimental
By lysing cells, releasing RNA, and removing impurities such as proteins and DNA, high-purity RNA products are finally obtained. The commonly used traditional method is the guanidine isothiocyanate/phenol/chloroform method (Trizol), which is suitable for a variety of animal materials including animal tissues, microorganisms, cultured cells, etc., and most plant materials.

Cell Cytotoxicity Assay
Cytotoxicity assays are usually based on the assessment of cell membrane damage, which can also be indirectly detected by measuring cell viability. Detection methods include MTT assay, CKK-8 assay, LDH assay and ATP assay, etc.
