Product Description

DEL-22379 is a novel, potent, selective, and water-soluble dimerization inhibitor of ERK (extracellular signal-related kinase 2) with potential antitumor activity. Its IC50 for inhibiting ERK is 0.5 μM. Nearly 50% of all human cancers exhibit aberrant RAS-ERK signaling, making it a prime candidate for antineoplastic agent intervention. DEL-22379 prevents tumorigenesis caused by oncogenes of the RAS-ERK pathway by inhibiting ERK dimerization without affecting ERK phosphorylation. Even at low nanomolar concentrations, DEL-22379 can bind to ERK2 with a Kd that is estimated to be in the low micromolar range.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
ERK2 (IC50 = 0.5 μM)
ln Vitro
DEL-22379 is an ERK dimerization inhibitor.With an estimated half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of ~0.5 μM, DEL-22379 prevents EGF-induced co-immunoprecipitation of ectopic ERK2 molecules tagged with hemagglutinin (HA) or FLAG epitopes. Tumor cells that contain oncogenes from the RAS-ERK pathway experience growth inhibition. On tumor cells in culture, the biological effects of DEL-22379 are being studied. By comparing their half-maximal growth inhibitory concentrations (GI50), the cytostatic effects of DEL-22379 are contrasted to those of the MEK inhibitor PD-0325901 and the ERK kinase inhibitor SCH-772984. The three compounds are most toxic to cell lines containing mutant BRAF. In contrast, BRAF and RAS wild-type (WT) cell lines are the most resilient, and RAS mutant cells display a range of sensitivities. Because DEL-22379 exhibits similar dimerization- and cytoplasmic signaling-inhibitory dose responses (IC50 of 150-400 nM) regardless of genotype, distinct sensitivity to it cannot be explained in cells with different oncogenic genotypes[1].
ln Vivo
Some of the aforementioned cell lines are xenografted onto nude mice to test the antitumor effects of DEL-22379. Tumor growth is then observed after intra-peritoneal injection of DEL-22379 at a dose of 15 mg/kg. Both liver extracts and xenografted tumors exhibit inhibition of ERK dimerization at this dose. For A375 cells (BRAF mutants), DEL-22379 significantly slows tumor progression[1].
Enzyme Assay
Compound screening is carried out in HEK293T cells that have been pretreated for 30 min with the potential inhibitors (10 μM) before being stimulated with EGF. By using native PAGE and p-ERK evaluation of the potential positives, cellular lysates are examined for the presence of ERK dimerization. When His-ERK2 and DEL-22379 are added to purified GST-MEK1 ΔN EE that has been purified from bacteria and bound to glutathione sepharose beads, in vitro ERK dimerization is measured. Additionally carried out are Western blotting, kinase assays, and luciferase assays. The DEL-22379 compound is in silico docked using the modeling tools offered by the OpenEye package (v. 2.1).
Cell Assay
DEL-22379 (0.2-1 μM) is applied to HEK293T cells that have been plated at a density of 1,000–2,000 cells per well for 48 hours. Alamar Blue is then added, and the colorimetric change is measured at 570 and 600 nm. Using GraphPad5 Prism Software, nonlinear regression is used to estimate the GI50. By measuring caspase 3 activity, either through western blotting or the Caspase-Glo 3/7 luminogenic assay, apoptosis is examined[1].
Animal Protocol
Mice: In female, athymic nu/nu mice that are eight weeks old, cancer cells are xenografted. Prior to treatment with DEL-22379 at a dose of 15 mg/kg every 12 hours for two weeks, 3×106 cells are injected subcutaneously in the lateral flank and given time to mature for 10 to 15 days. Patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) are procedures utilizing patient-derived colorectal cancer cells carrying the BRAFV600E mutation from non-necrotic areas of primary adenocarcinomas from patients who undergo surgical resection. NOD-SCID mice have cell grafts placed in their cecum or both flanks. DEL-22379 is injected intraperitoneally at a concentration of 15 mg/kg every 12 hours for 30 days[1].

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.
