Product Description
RKI 1447 di-HCl is a potent and specific ROCK inhibitor (antagonist) with IC50 of 14.5 and 6.2 nM for ROCK1 and ROCK2, respectively. RKI 1447 di-HCl suppresses the growth of colorectal cancer cells and promotes apoptosis.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
ROCK1 14.5 nM (IC50) ROCK2 6.2 nM (IC50) Apoptosis
ln Vitro
In human cancer cells, RKI 1447 inhibits the phosphorylation of the ROCK substrates MLC-2 and MYPT-1, but at doses as high as 10 μM, it had no influence on the phosphorylation levels of AKT, MEK, and S6 kinase[1]. (0.003-10 μM) is effective in preventing human cancer cells' phosphorylation of the ROCK substrates MLC-2 and MYPT-1[1]. Effective anticancer efficacy against colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is demonstrated by RKI 1447. HCT-8 and HCT-116 cell growth is significantly suppressed by RKI 1447 (10-320 μM; 24 hours)[2]. A dose-dependent manner of inducing apoptosis is observed with RKI 1447 (20-80 μM; 24 hours)[2].
ln Vivo
The growth of breast tumors is inhibited in vivo by RKI 1447 (200 mg/kg; intraperitoneal; daily for 14 days)[1]. On CRC in vivo, RKI 1447 (100 mg/kg; ip; once every 3 days; for 14 days) exhibits anticancer efficacy. The mice are not physiologically harmed by RKI 1447[2].

Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: MMTV/neu transgenic mice [FVB/N-Tg (MMTVneu) 202 Mul/J][1]
Doses: 200 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Treated ip daily for 14 days
Experimental Results: Tumors from mice treated with vehicle increased in size with an average percent change in tumor volume of 68.3%. In contrast, tumors from mice treated with the RKI-1447 increased in size with an average percent change in tumor volume of only 8.8%. Thus, RKI-1447 inhibited mammary tumor growth by 87%.

Animal/Disease Models: 5weeks old Male BALB/C nude mice[2]
Doses: 100 mg/kg
Route of Administration: intraperitoneally (ip) injected; once every 3 days; for 14 days
Experimental Results: Efficiently blocked CRC tumor growth in vivo.

Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.26 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% 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 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.26 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 25.0 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.

*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
