    Description

    YM-254890 is a selective Gαq/11 protein inhibitor isolated from Chromobacterium sp. YM-254890 shows no inhibition of other G protein subtypes. YM-254890 inhibits platelet aggregation induced by ADP by blocking the P2Y1 signal transduction pathway, with an IC50 value below 0.6 μM[1][2].

    IC50 & Target

    P2Y1 Receptor

     

    In Vitro

    YM-254890 inhibits platelet aggregation induced by ADP (2, 5 and 20 μM) in human platelet-rich plasma with IC50 values of 0.37, 0.39 and 0.51 μM. ADP mediates platelet aggregation via two G protein-coupled receptors, P2Y1 and P2Y12. The effect of YM-254890 on the P2Y1 and P2Y12 signal transduction pathways using C6-15 cells stably expressing the human P2Y1 or P2Y12 receptors is examined. Stimulation of P2Y1-C6-15 cells by 2MeSADP leads to increases in intracellular calcium mobilization. In this assay, YM-254890 inhibits the increase in [Ca2+]i with an IC50 value of 0.031 μM. In contrast, 2MeSADP-induced inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity in P2Y12-C6-15 cells is unaffected by YM-254890 at 40 μM[1].

    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: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (1.30 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (12.5 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: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (1.30 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (12.5 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.
