GGTI-2418
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
GGTI-2418 is a highly potent, competitive, and selective geranylgeranyltransferase I (GGTase I) inhibitor. GGTI-2418 inhibits GGTase I and FTase activities with IC50s of 9.5 nM and 53 μM, respectively. GGTI-2418 also increases p27(Kip1) and induces significant regression of breast tumors.

Biological Activity
IC50: 9.5 nM (GGTase I), 53 μM (FTase)[1]
GGTI-2418 inhibits GGTase I and FTase activities with IC50s of 9.5±2.0 nM and 53±11 μM, respectively, a 5,600-fold selectivity toward inhibition of GGTase I versus FTase. GGTI-2418 demonstrates competitive inhibition of GGTase I against the H-Ras-CVLL protein with a Ki of 4.4±1.6 nM[1].
GGTi-2418 (10-15 μM; 16 hours) treatment delocalizes FBXL2 and stabilizes IP3R3[2].

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 (4.71 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 (4.71 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 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
