Product Description

BIX02188 (BIX-02188), an indolinone analog, is a novel, highly potent and selective MEK5 inhibitor that has the potential to treat neuropathic pain. MEK5 is inhibited with an IC50 of 4.3 nM, and ERK5 is also inhibited with an IC50 of 810 nM, but JNK2 and other closely related kinases are unaffected. By specifically inhibiting p-ERK5 expression in CSF-CN, BIX02188 can significantly reduce mechanical allodynia and thermal hypersensitivity brought on by CCI. This is accompanied by a decline in the phosphorylation of cAMP response-element binding protein (CREB) in CSF-CN.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
MEK5 (IC50 = 4.3 nM); ERK5 (IC50 = 810 nM); CSF1R (FMS) (IC50 = 280 nM); LCK (IC50 = 390 nM); KIT (IC50 = 550 nM); TGFβR1 (IC50 = 1.8 μM); ABL1 (IC50 = 2.1 μM); RPS6KA6 (RSK4) (IC50 = 3.2 μM); RPS6KA3 (RSK2) (IC50 = 4.1 μM); MAPK14 (p38 alpha) (IC50 = 3.9 μM); JAK3 (IC50 = 7.8 μM); SRC (IC50 = 8.9 μM)
ln Vitro
BIX02188 significantly inhibits ERK5 catalytic activity with an IC50 of 0.83 μM and blocks MEK5 catalytic activity with an IC50 of 4.3 nM. It exhibits no activity against the closely related kinases MEK1, MEK2, ERK1, p38α, JNK2, TGFβR1, EGFR, and STK16, with IC50 values of 1.8 μM for TGFβR1, 3.9 μM for p38α, and >6.3 μM for other kinases. Pretreatment with BIX02188 inhibits sorbitol-induced ERK5 phosphorylation in HeLa cells in a dose-dependent manner but has no inhibitory effect on ERK1/2, p38, or JNK1/2 MAPK phosphorylation. In HeLa or HEK293 cells, BIX02188 treatment given alone for 24 hours had no cytotoxic effects.[1] BIX02188 specifically inhibits BMK1 phosphorylation in bovine lung microvascular endothelial cells (BLMECs) stimulated with 300 M H2O2 in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC50 of 0.8 M. The fact that BIX02188 completely reverses the inhibitory effect on TNF-mediation and that JNK activation had a similar impact on BMK1 inhibition suggests that it inhibits TNF signaling by activating the MEK5-BMK1 signaling pathway.[2]
ln Vivo

Enzyme Assay
Utilizing PKLight ATP Detection Reagent, kinase activity is measured for the MEK5 protein that was isolated from a baculovirus expression system. The assay is carried out in the presence of varying concentrations of BIX02188 using 15 nM GST-MEK5 and 0.75 μM ATP in an assay buffer made up of 25 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 50 mM KCl, 0.2% BSA, 0.01% CHAPS, 100 M Na3VO4, 0.5 mM DTT, and 1% DMSO. The kinase reaction mixture is incubated for 90 minutes at room temperature, and then 10 μL of an ATP detection reagent is added. For the purpose of determining the IC50 value, the relative light unit (RLU) signal is measured and converted to percent of control (POC) values.
Cell Assay
To stimulate the cells, sorbitol at a final concentration of 0.4 M is applied for 20 minutes at 37 °C after the cells have been serum-starved for 20 hours. 1.5 hours are spent adding BIX02188 before sorbitol is added. A 50 L RIPA buffer containing Halt protease and phosphate inhibitors is used to lyse the cells after cell harvesting for 5–10 minutes at 4 °C. The lysates are centrifuged for 10 minutes at 14,000 rpm, and then 50 μL of the lysate is mixed with 50 μl 2× sample buffer before boiling it for 4 minutes at 95 °C. Run on 10% Tris-glycine SDS-PAGE gels with nitrocellulose after a 20 µl sample. The proper antibodies are used for Western blotting.

*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.

  • 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
