Product Description

C188-9 is a novel, potent and orally bioavailable STAT3 inhibitor that binds to STAT3 with high affinity (KD=4.7±0.4 nM). It is a small-molecule inhibitor that targets the phosphotyrosyl peptide binding site within the Stat3 Src homology 2 (SH2) domain with Ki 136 nM. It does not inhibit upstream Jak or Src kinase. C188-9 is well tolerated in mice, has good oral bioavailability, and is concentrated in tumors. STAT3 inhibition by C188-9 resulted in attenuated skin fibrosis, myofibroblast accumulation, pro-fibrotic gene expression and collagen deposition in both mouse models of skin fibrosis. C188-9 decreased in vitro dermal fibroblast production of fibrotic genes induced by IL-6 trans-signalling and TGF-β. Finally, TGF-β induced phosphotyrosylation of STAT3 in a SMAD3-dependent manner.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
C188-9 (Kd = 4.7 nM) is a Stat3 inhibitor [1]. The range of 4-7 μM and 8-18 μM is where C188-9's IC50s for inhibiting Stat3 activation in AML cell lines and primary AML samples are found. In order to measure apoptotic cells for annexin V-labeled cells in apoptosis investigations, C188-9 is applied to AML cell lines and primary samples for a duration of 24 hours. From 6 μM to over 50 μM, the EC50s for inducing apoptosis exhibit significant variability [2].
ln Vivo
Out of the roughly 13,528 distinguishable genes, C188 modifies the levels of 37 gene transcripts (17 down-regulated and 20 up-regulated, fdr <0.01, fold change≥1.5), 7 of which are identified as STAT3 gene targets. 76 genes that were previously identified as being regulated by STAT3 (38 down-regulated and 38 up-regulated) are among the much larger number of oncogenesis-related genes that C188-9 affects (384 total, 95 down- and 289 up-regulated). Naturally, C188-9 treatment results in the downregulation of 24 (63%) of the 38 genes that have been previously reported to be upregulated by STAT3. Furthermore, C188-9 downregulated 10 additional genes (fdr <0.01, fold change ≥1.5) that had previously been demonstrated to be upregulated by STAT1. Thus, STAT1 has been shown to positively regulate 40 of 48 (83.3%) genes that were previously downregulated by C188-9, including sixteen genes that have been demonstrated to be co-regulated by STAT3 and STAT1. This analysis suggests that C188-9 may affect both STAT3 and STAT1 in order to mediate its effect on gene transcript levels in HNSCC tumors[3].

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO:94 mg/mL (199.4 mM)
Water:< 1mg/mL
Ethanol:6 mg/mL (12.72 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.41 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 +5% Tween-80 + 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 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.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 2.1208 mL 10.6040 mL 21.2080 mL
5 mM 0.4242 mL 2.1208 mL 4.2416 mL
10 mM 0.2121 mL 1.0604 mL 2.1208 mL

*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 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)
