| Targets |
BCI-137 targets Argonaute 2 (AGO2), specifically binding tightly to multiple residues in the Mid domain of the protein. It acts as a competitive antagonist, inhibiting AGO2 function in the RNA-induced silencing complex.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In cell-free biochemical assays, BCI-137 inhibits AGO2 activity with an IC₅₀ of 342 μM. The compound binds to the Mid domain of AGO2, disrupting its function in the RNA-induced silencing complex. Detailed mechanistic studies would be required to fully characterize its inhibition kinetics.
|
| ln Vivo |
Cells treated with BCI-137 would show inhibition of AGO2-mediated gene silencing. The compound is used to study the role of AGO2 and the RNAi pathway in various cellular processes including gene regulation, development, and disease. Cellular effects would depend on the specific microRNA and target gene contexts.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro AGO2 inhibition assay involves incubating recombinant AGO2 protein or immunoprecipitated AGO2 complexes with varying concentrations of BCI-137. Enzyme activity is measured by assessing the cleavage of target RNA or the binding of microRNA guides. IC₅₀ values are calculated from dose-response curves. Binding to the Mid domain can be assessed by surface plasmon resonance or similar techniques.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cells are cultured and treated with BCI-137 at concentrations ranging from 1 µM to 1 mM. AGO2-mediated gene silencing is assessed by measuring the expression of known microRNA target genes using qRT-PCR or reporter assays. Cell viability is monitored to assess compound toxicity.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies for BCI-137 would be conducted in appropriate animal models to evaluate the effects of AGO2 inhibition. The compound would be administered via routes such as intraperitoneal injection or oral gavage. Endpoints would include assessment of gene expression changes and phenotypic effects related to RNAi pathway disruption.

Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*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.
