PPACK dihydrochloride  (Synonyms: Pebac; D-Phenylalanyl-prolyl-arginyl Chloromethyl Ketone; D-Phe-Pro-Arg-CH2Cl)

Cat. No.: HY-122542A Purity: 99.07%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

PPACK dihydrochloride is an orally active, selective molecular glue degrader targeting IKZF2. Through a molecular glue mechanism, PPACK dihydrochloride binds to CRBN, recruits IKZF2 to form a ternary complex, and promotes its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. This further converts inhibitory regulatory T cells (Treg) into effector-like T cells, enhances CD8+ T cell responses, and modulates the Teff:Treg balance. PPACK dihydrochloride also increases the production of the inflammatory cytokine IL-2 and reduces the suppressive activity of Treg. PPACK dihydrochloride can be used in cancer immunotherapy research, and exhibits a synergistic effect when combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors such as anti-PD1.

Description

PPACK dihydrochloride is an orally active, selective molecular glue degrader targeting IKZF2. Through a molecular glue mechanism, PPACK dihydrochloride binds to CRBN, recruits IKZF2 to form a ternary complex, and promotes its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. This further converts inhibitory regulatory T cells (Treg) into effector-like T cells, enhances CD8+ T cell responses, and modulates the Teff:Treg balance. PPACK dihydrochloride also increases the production of the inflammatory cytokine IL-2 and reduces the suppressive activity of Treg. PPACK dihydrochloride can be used in cancer immunotherapy research, and exhibits a synergistic effect when combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors such as anti-PD1[1][3].

In Vitro

PPACK dihydrochloride rapidly and completely degrades IKZF2, reduces the expression of CD25 and FOXP3 in inhibitory regulatory T cells (Treg), converts them into effector-like T cells, and simultaneously promotes the proliferation of effector T cells (Teff)[1].

PPACK dihydrochloride promotes the production of inflammatory cytokines IL-2 and IFNγ, enhances CD8+ T cell responses, regulates the Teff:Treg balance, and exerts a selective degradation effect on IKZF2[1].

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

In Vivo

In humanized CRBN mouse models, PPACK dihydrochloride induces IKZF2 depletion and significantly inhibits MC38 tumor growth. When combined with anti-PD1 or anti-LAG3, PPACK dihydrochloride significantly improves animal survival and induces durable tumor regression compared with monotherapy with anti-PD1 or anti-LAG3[2][3].

Animal Model: Wistar ST (male, 8-10 weeks old)[2]
Dosage: 0.05 mg/kg; 0.1 mg/kg; 0.25 mg/kg; 0.5 mg/kg
Administration: i.v.; single bolus injection
Result: Exerted a significant, dose-dependent antithrombotic effect in both arterioles and venules.
Required a significantly higher number of laser irradiations to induce occlusive thrombi in both vessel types relative to controls at 0.5 mg/kg dose, with maximal effect immediately after injection that persisted for 60 minutes.
Identified minimal effective dose of 0.1 mg/kg for both arterioles and venules.
Increased the number of laser irradiations needed for thrombus occlusion at all active doses, with effect magnitude increasing with higher doses.

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.

  • Protocol 1

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

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.77 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.
  • Protocol 2

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

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.77 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 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.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
