COA Handling Instructions

SIBA (5'-Isobutylthioadenosine) is a transmethylation inhibitor (SAH (HY-19528) analogue), with potent anti-proliferative activity. SIBA reversibly inhibits the production of HSV-1 by blocking methylation, specifically by blocking the 5' end-capping of viral mRNA. SIBA also inhibits the growth of tumour cells in vitro and metastatic spread in vivo. SIBA can be used in cancer, HSV-1 infection and anti-malaria studies.

Description

SIBA (5'-Isobutylthioadenosine) is a transmethylation inhibitor (SAH (HY-19528) analogue), with potent anti-proliferative activity. SIBA reversibly inhibits the production of HSV-1 by blocking methylation, specifically by blocking the 5' end-capping of viral mRNA. SIBA also inhibits the growth of tumour cells in vitro and metastatic spread in vivo. SIBA can be used in cancer, HSV-1 infection and anti-malaria studies[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target

Parasite, HSV-1[2].

In Vitro

SIBA (0.5 mM; 24-96 h) shows strong anti-proliferative activity against 3LL and RMS-J1 tumour cells[1].
SIBA (1 mM; 12, 24 h) reversibly inhibits HSV production in HEp2 cells (infected by HSV-1)[2].
SIBA inhibits protein synthesis by 98% after 10 h infection of HEp2 cells (infected by HSV-1)[2].
SIBA (1 mM; 8.5 h) inhibits protein synthesis and RNA methylation in HEp2 cells (infected by HSV-1)[2].
SIBA (0.5, 1.0 mM; 24, 48 h) inhibits the conversion of putrescine into spermidine and/or spermine and that this inhibition is a reversible one (interferes with polyamine biosynthesis, probably by blocking aminopropyltransferase)[3].

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 (7.37 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

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.37 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.
