Product Description

Alisertib (also named as MLN8237, MLN-8237) is a novel potent, selective, orally bioavailable Aurora A kinase (AAK) inhibitor with potential antitumor activity. It inhibits Aurora A kinase with an IC50 of 1.2 nM in a cell-free assay and exhibits >200-fold higher selectivity for Aurora A than Aurora B. Alisertib shows potent in vitro antiproliferative activity and high in vivo antitumor efficacy. Alisertib was developed from its predecessor, MLN8054, in order to minimize the benzodiazepine-like effects seen with MLN8054. The inhibitory effect of Alisertib is ATP-competitive, reversible and AAK-specific with an inhibition constant (Ki) of 0.43 nmol/L. MLN8237 is being investigated to treat advanced cancers.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Alisertib (MLN 8237) induces aberrant mitotic spindles in MM cells, mitotic accumulation, and senescence and death to prevent cell division. Tumor suppressor genes p21 and p27, as well as p53, are upregulated by aleritetib[1]. The enhanced affinity for ATP brought on by cofactor binding to Aurora A may be the cause of Alisertib's (MLN 8237) lower activity for the T217D/W277E Aurora A/TPX2 complex[2]. In various tumor cell lines, aleretitib (MLN 8237) suppresses cell growth with IC50s ranging from 15 to 469 nM[4].
ln Vivo
In the xenograft-murine model of human-MM, alestertib (MLN 8237) (30 mg/kg, po) dramatically lowers tumor burden and improves overall survival[1]. In solid tumor xenograft models, alisertib (3-30 mg/kg; po; once daily for 3 weeks) inhibits the growth of tumors[4].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Nude mice bearing HCT-116 colon tumor xenograft[4]
Doses: 3, 10, or 30 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Po; one time/day for 3 weeks
Experimental Results: Resulted in a dose-dependent TGI (tumor growth inhibition) of 43.3%, 84.2%, and 94.7% for the 3, 10, and 30 mg/kg groups, respectively.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 27 mg/mL (52.0 mM)
Water:<1 mg/mL
Ethanol:<1 mg/mL
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 2.08 mg/mL (4.01 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
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 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: 2.08 mg/mL (4.01 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication.
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.

*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
