Product Description

AG-1478 HCl (also known as Tyrphostin AG-1478) is a novel, potent and selective EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) inhibitor with IC50 of 3 nM in cell-free assays. It reversibly inhibits rat brain Kv1.5 potassium channels with IC50 of 9.8 µM which is independent of protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) activity. AG-1478 also inhibits the growth of leiomyoma and myometrium cell cultures with IC50 values of 5.6 and 5.7 µM, respectively. Previous studies suggest that EGFR antagonism may be effective for the treatment of various diseases such as cancer, angiotensin II-induced cardiac hypertrophy and diabetic cardiomyopathy. Therefore, AG-1478 has the potential to be used as therapeutics for these disorders.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
In chemically specified DMEM/F12 media, human lung (A549) and prostate (DU145) cancer cell lines are grown. AG-1478 (AG1478) is irreversible for growth regulation of these cell lines. Although AG-1478 is not able to totally stop the proliferation of A549 cells, it appears to be more effective at lower concentrations[1]. The angiotensin II-mediated production of TGF-β and fibronectin by cardiac fibroblasts is considerably reduced when EGFR is inhibited by the specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor AG-1478 (AG1478). AG-1478, a small-molecule inhibitor with an IC50 of 4 nM, pharmacologically inhibits EGFR[2]. Flow cytometry was used to determine how much both Polyfect (PF) and Superfect (SF) treatment boosted apoptosis in HEK 293 cells. Tempol, an antioxidant, dramatically decreased PF and SF dendrimer-mediated apoptosis. As a positive control, AG-1478 (AG1478) was utilized at a 10-fold higher dose (100 μM) than that of signaling studies, and it effectively caused apoptosis in HEK 293 cells[3].
ln Vivo
In both of the obese mouse models, the administration of AG-1478 (AG1478) dramatically lowers myocardial inflammation, fibrosis, apoptosis, and dysfunction. ApoE-/- mice are given oral gavage with AG -1478 (10 mg/kg/day) or 542 (10 mg/kg/day) for 8 weeks after being fed HFD for 8 weeks (ApoE-HFD). In vivo, HFD-induced cardiac EGFR phosphorylation is blocked by AG-1478 or 542 therapy, with no impact on plasma levels of total triglycerides (TG) or low density lipoprotein (LDL)[2]. EGFR phosphorylation is robustly and consistently elevated upon administration of EGF (10 nM), and this elevation can be inhibited by the known EGFR phosphorylation inhibitor AG-1478 (AG478). Although not as much as with AG1478, increasing dosages of Polyfect (PF) significantly reduce EGF-induced EGFR phosphorylation (p<0.05)[3].
Animal Protocol
Dissolved in 100 mM Captisol; 1 mg/kg; i.p. injection
Female BALB/c nu/nu mice inoculated s.c. with A431 or U87MG.Δ2-7 tumor cells

*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
