Product Description
1A-116 is a Rac1 inhibitor specific for the W56 residue, which can effectively prevent EGF-induced Rac1 activation and block Rac1-P-Rex1 interaction. 1A-116 causes apoptosis and inhibits cell growth/proliferation, migration, and cycle progression in a circadian rhythm-dependent manner. 1A-116 also has high anti-cancer/tumor cell metastasis activity in vivo.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
F3II (IC50 = 4 µM); MDA-MB-231 (IC50 = 21 µM); Rac1; Apoptosis
ln Vitro
1A-116 (48 hours) has a concentration-dependent effect on the proliferation of MDA-MB-231 and F3II cells, with IC50 values of 4 μM and 21 μM, respectively [1]. 1A-116 (1, 10 μM; 12 h) dramatically increases Rac1 in F3II cells and, in a concentration-dependent way, decreases intracellular Rac1-GTP levels [1]. 1A-116 bursts the Rac1-P-Rex1 response at 50 and 100 μM over a 12-hour period [1]. LN229 cell proliferation is inhibited in a circadian manner by 1A-116 (20 μM; 5-hour interval over 25 h) [2]. At 10 HPS, 1A-116 (10 μM; 16 h) dramatically decreased cell migration, demonstrating temporal regulation. Hours post synchronization (HPS): Following serum shock, the elapsed time is measured in hours [2]. 1A-116 (20, 50 μM; 6 h) senses sterilization of cells in a manner that is dependent on the circadian rhythm [2]. At the GEF-Rac1 level, 1A-116 (100 nM) shows inhibitory Rac1 activity and decreases the thickness of the flipped layer mediated by Vav2 and Rac1, but not PAK1 [3]. 1][2]
ln Vivo
1A-116 (intravenous; 3 mg/kg; once day for 21 days) showed strong anti-metastatic action without causing appreciable damage, with a 60% decrease in the total number of metastatic lung colonies in vivo. [1] 1A -116 (20 mg/kg; intraperitoneal; once daily; for ZT12, 73 days; for ZT3, 68 days) In tumor-bearing mice, treatment with ZT12 increased longevity in comparison to ZT3. Zeitgeber Time 12 (ZT12) denotes the time at which the lights go out (7 p.m. tonight), while ZT0 denotes the time at which they come on (7 a.m. tonight). [2]. Good wall availability is shown in 1A-116 [3].

*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
