Description

PT-65 is a GSK3α and GSK3β PROTAC degrader with DC50 values of 28.3 nM and 34.2 nM, respectively. PT-65 inhibits excessive tau phosphorylation mediated by GSK3β, Aβ and Okadaic acid (HY-N6785). PT-65 is applicable for the research of Alzheimer's disease[1]. (Pink: GSK-3α and GSK-3β ligand (HY-15761); Blue: Cereblon ligand (HY-10984); Black: linker).

IC50 & Target[1]

GSK-3α

28.3 nM (DC50)

GSK-3β

34.2 nM (DC50)

In Vitro

PT-65 (62.5-1000 nM; 48 h) dose-dependently reduces GSK3β-mediated tau hyperphosphorylation at serine 396, serine 404, and threonine 205 sites in GSK3β-overexpressing HEK-293T cells by inducing GSK3β degradation, with phosphorylated tau levels recovering fully 12 h after compound washout[1].
PT-65 (0-100 μM; 72 h) protects SH-SY5Y cells from Aβ42-induced neurotoxicity by dose-dependently reducing GSK3 levels and subsequent tau hyperphosphorylation, with no intrinsic cytotoxicity up to 100 μM[1].

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: GSK3β-overexpressing HEK-293T cells
Concentration: 62.5, 125, 250, 500 and 1000 nM (24 h dose-dependent); 1 μM (washout recovery)
Incubation Time: 24 h (dose-dependent); 24 h treatment followed by up to 36 h washout recovery
Result: Induced dose-dependent degradation of GSK3β, accompanied by dose-dependent reduction of phosphorylated tau at serine 396, serine 404, and threonine 205 sites; total tau levels remained unchanged.
Recovered GSK3β levels gradually after washout of 1 μM PT-65, and restored phosphorylated tau levels fully by 12 h post-washout.
In Vivo

PT-65 (200-600 μM/5 μL; i.c.v.; two doses: 72 h pre-model establishment and 72 h post-model establishment) dose-dependently ameliorates okadaic acid-induced learning and memory impairments in male Sprague-Dawley rats, while reducing hippocampal GSK3α/β levels and tau hyperphosphorylation[1].

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

Animal Model: Sprague-Dawley (male, 3 months old, 280-300 g, unilateral hippocampal microinjection of okadaic acid to induce AD-like pathology)[1]
Dosage: 200 μM/5 μL; 600 μM/5 μL
Administration: i.c.v.; two doses: 72 h pre-model establishment and 72 h post-model establishment
Result: Reduced escape latency times on day 3, day 4, and day 5 posttreatment (high dose: 600 μM/5 μL) compared to OA-treated rats.
Reduced escape latency compared to OA-treated rats (low dose: 200 μM/5 μL).
Increased time spent in the target quadrant in probe trial compared to OA-treated rats (both doses).
Dose-dependently reduced hippocampal levels of GSK3α, GSK3β, and hyperphosphorylated tau at the S404, S396, and T205 sites compared to OA-treated rats.
Reduced the density of p-T205-tau-positive staining in hippocampal tissue compared to OA-treated rats.

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 (2.31 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% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (2.31 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

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.
