JNK Inhibitor VIII targets JNK-1, JNK-2, and JNK-3, which are key components of the MAPK signaling pathway. By competitively binding to the ATP site, it inhibits the phosphorylation of c-Jun and other transcription factors, thereby modulating cellular processes such as apoptosis, inflammation, and cell proliferation. It inhibits c-jun phosphorylation with an EC50 of 920 nM in HepG2 cells. |

| ln Vitro |
TCS-JNK-6a binds to the ATP site in a competitive and reversible manner. This substance exhibits an impressive selectivity profile. In hepG2 cells, it also exhibits some inhibition of c-Jun phosphorylation. TCS-JNK-6o is a 2,5-dimethoxy analogue of TCS-JNK-6a in which the phenyl ring has been replaced by a dimethoxy group. TCS-JNK-6o exhibits additional increases in potency. [1]
In vitro, JNK Inhibitor VIII demonstrates potent inhibitory activity against JNK kinases. It has Ki values of 2.0 nM, 4.0 nM, and 52.0 nM for JNK1, JNK2, and JNK3, respectively. It inhibits JNK-mediated ATF2 phosphorylation. It shows some inhibition of c-Jun phosphorylation in HepG2 cells. It preferentially blocks the growth of PTEN null mouse embryonic fibroblasts. |
| ln Vivo |
JNK Inhibitor VIII (TCS-JNK-6o) pharmacokinetic profiles are established in Sprague-Dawley rats. The JNK Inhibitor VIII (TCS-JNK-6o) exhibits a brief half-life of about 1 h, rapid clearance, and hardly detectable bioavailability. Studies on microsomal incubation have shown that this compound has a very quick oxidative metabolism. [1]
In vivo, JNK Inhibitor VIII is used as a research tool to study the role of JNK signaling in various physiological and pathological processes. By inhibiting JNK, it can modulate apoptosis, inflammation, and cell proliferation. It is used to explore the therapeutic potential of JNK inhibitors for the treatment of cancer, inflammatory diseases, and neurodegenerative disorders. |
| Enzyme Assay |
Radioactive FlashPlates are used as the assay platform for Ser/Thr-kinase assays. In this format, biotinylated substrate peptide (2 μM), γ-[33P]-ATP (5 μM, 2 mCi/μmol), inhibitors (3-10000 nM in 2% DMSO), and enzyme are incubated for 1 h in buffer containing 25 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 1 mM DTT, 10 mM MgCl2, 100 μM Na3VO4, and 0.075 mg/mL Triton X-100, stopped with 80 μL of stop buffer containing 100 mM EDTA and 4 M NaCl, transferred to streptavidin-coated 384-well FlashPlates, which are then washed 3 times and read using a TopCount microplate reader.
The in vitro kinase assay for JNK Inhibitor VIII involves measuring its ability to inhibit the phosphorylation activity of JNK1, JNK2, or JNK3. The enzyme is incubated with a peptide substrate (e.g., ATF2 or c-Jun) and ATP in the presence of varying concentrations of the compound. The amount of phosphorylated substrate is measured using a luminescent or fluorescent detection system, and the IC50 or Ki is calculated from the dose-response curve. |
| Cell Assay |
HepG2 human hepatoma cells (ATCC) are grown in low glucose MEM with 1×NEAA, 1×sodium pyruvate, and 10% FBS as dietary supplements. Cells are seeded at 5×104 cells/well in 500 μL of complete media on 24-well collagen-coated plates for P-c-Jun assays, and the plates are incubated overnight. The final inhibitor concentrations are provided by adding 5 μL directly to the media on the cells after serial compound dilutions in DMSO at 100×. Cells are stimulated for 30 minutes with TNFR or vehicle control after 1 hour, harvested in 70 μL of lysis buffer (TBS (54 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.6, 150 mM NaCl), 1% TritonX-100,0.5% Nonidet P-40, 0.25% sodium deoxycholate, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM EGTA, 0.5 mM sodium fluoride, 1 mM pervanadate, 1 μM microcystin, 1 mM AEBSF, 1 tablet of complete EDTA Free-Mini inhibitor cocktail) and then frozen at -80 degrees Celsius for use in the P-c-Jun assay.
In vitro cell culture studies for JNK Inhibitor VIII utilize HepG2 cells or other cancer cell lines. Cells are treated with the compound, and the phosphorylation of c-Jun is measured by Western blotting to confirm target inhibition. Cell viability is assessed using MTT assays. Apoptosis is detected by flow cytometry using Annexin V/PI staining. |

*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.
