  2. VDAC Bcl-2 Family Apoptosis
  3. WEHI-3773

WEHI-3773 is a VDAC2 ligand and apoptosis modulator. WEHI-3773 directly binds to the β7-β10 region of VDAC2 and disrupts its interaction with BAX and BAK. WEHI-3773 regulates BAX-mediated apoptosis in BAK-deficient cells by modulating conformational activation of BAX, mitochondrial redistribution, and cytochrome c release. WEHI-3773 overcomes Venetoclax (HY-15531) resistance, resensitizes leukemia cells carrying BAX mutations to BH3 mimetics, and enables long-term clonogenic survival of BAK-deficient cells treated with BH3 mimetics. WEHI-3773 is applicable to research related to acute myeloid leukemia.

In Vitro

WEHI-3773 inhibits BAX-mediated apoptosis in BAK-deficient cells by blocking the conformational activation, mitochondrial redistribution and cytochrome c release of BAX. In BAX-deficient cells, WEHI-3773 promotes BAK-mediated apoptosis by inducing the conformational activation of BAK, cytochrome c release and VDAC2 dissociation[1].
WEHI-3773 (0.1-10000 nM; pre-incubated for 2 h followed by co-incubation with BH3 mimetics for 22 h) dose-dependently enhances BAK-mediated apoptosis in Bax-/- Vdac2-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) expressing VDAC2 or a chimeric VDAC protein containing the β7 to β10 region of VDAC2, but exerts no such effect in cells expressing VDAC1 or a chimeric protein lacking this region[1].
WEHI-3773 (200 nM; 48 h) enhances BH3 mimetic-induced cell death in BAX-/- MV4;11 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells and reverses venetoclax resistance caused by BAX deletion[1].
WEHI-3773 (200 nM; 48 h) enhances BH3 mimetic-induced cell death in venetoclax-resistant OCI-AML3 acute myeloid leukemia cells harboring BAX mutations, thereby overcoming acquired venetoclax resistance[1].
WEHI-3773 (80-10000 nM) dose-dependently promotes BAK conformational activation and cytochrome c release in BAK-/- HeLa cells treated with ABT-737 + S63845[2].
WEHI-3773 (200 nM; 48 h) restores the sensitivity of BAX-/- MV4;11 human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells to venetoclax, S63845, and their combination following 48 h of co-treatment[2].

Cell Viability Assay[1]

Cell Line: Bax-/- Vdac2-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) expressing VDAC1/VDAC2 chimeric proteins, full-length VDAC1, or full-length VDAC2
Concentration: 0.1-10000 nM
Incubation Time: 2 h pre-incubation, followed by 22 h incubation with BH3 mimetics
Result: Reduced cell viability dose-dependently in cells expressing full-length VDAC2, VDAC1/2-a, or VDAC1/2-c chimeric proteins. Reduced viability in cells expressing VDAC1/2-d chimeric proteins, but to a lesser extent at higher concentrations. Had no effect on viability in cells expressing full-length VDAC1 or VDAC1/2-b chimeric proteins.

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.
