Product Description
XST-14 is a potent, competitive and selective ULK1 inhibitor (antagonist) with IC50 of 26.6 nM. XST-14 induces autophagy inhibition by reducing phosphorylation of ULK1 downstream substrates. XST-14 causes apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells and has anti-tumor effects.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
CaMK II ULK1 26.6 nM (IC50)
ln Vitro
XST-14 has been shown to inhibit various enzymes, including ULK1 (IC50 = 13.6 nM), MAP2K1/MEK1 (IC50 = 721.8 nM), MAPK14/p38 alpha (IC50 = 283.9 nM), TGFBR2 (IC50 = 809.3 nM), ACVR1/ALK2 (IC50 = 183.8 nM), ULK2 (IC50 = 70.9 nM), and CAMK2A (IC50 = 66.3 nM). Cell proliferative activity is reduced by XST-14 (20-80 μM) for a 24-hour period[1]. In HepG2 and human primary HCC cells, XST-14 (5 μM) causes apoptosis for a duration of 24 hours[1]. CHO cells producing GFP-LC3 steadily thanks to LC3-II[1]. XST-14 (5 μM) suppresses the phosphorylation of PIK3C3 at Ser249 and BECN1 at Ser15 after 12 hours[1].
ln Vivo
In nude mice, XST-14 (15, 30 mg/kg/day; IP) exhibits anti-HCC efficacies, leading to reduced tumor weights and inhibited HCC cell proliferation in tumors[1]. T1/2 values for mg/kg for IV and 10 mg/kg for IP are 2.69 and 2.31 hours, respectively[1].

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : 250 mg/mL (858.10 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (7.14 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (7.14 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

10 mM 0.3432 mL 1.7162 mL 3.4324 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
