Description

JK184 is a potent Hedgehog (Hh) pathway inhibitor with IC50 of 30 nM in mammalian cells.

IC50 & Target

IC50: 30 nM (Hedgehog)[1]

In Vitro

JK184 is designed to antagonize Hh signaling by inhibiting glioma (Gli)-dependent transcriptional activity in a dose dependent manner. JK184 significantly inhibitts proliferation of HUVECs with IC50 of 6.3 μg/mL after three days incubation. To evaluate anti-tumor effect of JK184, MTT assay is conducted in Panc-1 and BxPC-3 cells after administration with indicated concentrations of compounds, half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of JK184 (23.7 ng/mL in anc-1 and 34.3 ng/mL in BxPC-3)[1]. Claudin-low cell lines are more sensitive to JK184 treatment than are MCF10a, MTSV1-7, or HMLE-shGFP and HMLE-pBP cells, and JK184 induced a dose-dependent decrease in glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1 (GLI1) transcript and protein levels in these cells. Treatment with the IC50 dose of JK184 enhances the proportion of HMLE-shEcad cells that stained with Annexin-V, but are negative for propidium iodide (PI) (P<0.0001, t test)[2].

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

In Vivo

JK184 (5 mg/kg, injected intravenously) exhibits good anti-proliferative activity in subcutaneous Panc-1 and BxPC-3 tumor models, and is a good candidate as antitumor drug targeted Hh signaling. However, JK184 has a poor pharmacokinetic profile and bioavailability[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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.13 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 (7.13 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.

Cell Assay
[1]

The Shh-LIGHT2 cells are seeded in 96-well plates and grown to confluency. The Shh-LIGHT2 cells are treated with various concentrations of JK184 micelles or free JK184 or micelles in DMEM containing 0.5% CS, 0.1 mg/mL streptomycin, 100 U/mL penicillin, 5% Shh-N conditioned medium obtained from Shh-N-producing HEK293 cells. The treated cells are cultured further for 60 h, and firefly and Renilla luciferase activities are measured using a dual luciferase kit. Proliferation assay or apoptosis evaluation of HUVECs is measured using MTT method or FCM analysis, respectively. HUVECs are treated with a series concentration of free JK184, JK184 micelles, or blank MPEG-PCL micelles for 48 h, respectively. The mean percentage of cell inhibition or apoptosis is calculated[1].

Animal Administration
[1]

Mice[1]
Five-week-old female athymic (nu/nu) mice are used. BxPC-3 and Panc-1 tumors are established by s.c. injection of 1×107 cells. Mice bearing tumors around 100 mm3 are selected and randomized into treatment groups (5 mice per group). Mice are injected intravenously every day for 30 days with 100 μL of NS (control), blank micelles, free JK184 (5 mg/kg body weight), or JK184 micelles (5 mg/kg body weight), respectively. Tumor length and width are determined every 3 days and tumor volume (TV) is calculated using the following formula: TV=0.5×length×width2. At the end of experiment, mice are sacrificed. Solid tumors are removed and processed for immunohistochemical analysis and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay.

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.
