Product Description

ML-18 (the S-enantiomer, the enantiomer is EMY-98), a nonpeptide analogs of PD176252, is a BRS-3 (Bombesin receptor subtype 3) antagonist with an IC50 of 4.8 μM. ML-18 and EMY-98, with IC50 values of 4.8 and >100μM, respectively, inhibited specific (125)I-BA1 (DTyr-Gln-Trp-Ala-Val-βAla-His-Phe-Nle-NH2)BB(6-14) binding to NCI-H1299 lung cancer cells that were stably transfected with BRS-3. On the other hand, ML-18 exhibited a lower affinity for binding to the GRPR and NMBR, with IC50 values exceeding 100μM and 16μM, respectively. With lung cancer cells loaded with FURA2-AM, ML-18 (16μM) but not its enantiomer EMY-98 inhibited 10nM BA1's capacity to elevate cytosolic Ca(2+) in a reversible manner. Lung cancer cells' ability to become tyrosine phosphorylated on EGFR and ERK in response to 100nM BA1 was inhibited by ML-18 (16μM), but not by EMY-98. ML-18 but not EMY-98 inhibited the proliferation of lung cancer cells. The findings suggest that ML-18 is a nonpeptide antagonist of BRS-3 that can be used as a model to increase potency and selectivity. A G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) for the bombesin (BB)-family of peptides is known as the bombesin receptor subtype (BRS)-3. As an orphan GPCR, BRS-3's physiological function is poorly understood because there aren't any particular agonists or antagonists. While PD176252 is a nonpeptide antagonist for the gastrin releasing peptide (GRP) R and NMBR but not BRS-3, PD168368 is a nonpeptide antagonist for the neuromedin B (NMB) receptor (R).

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
BRS-3 ( IC50 = 4.8 μM )
ln Vitro
ML-18 blocks specific 125I-BA1 (DTyr-Gln-Trp-Ala-Val-βAla-His-Phe-Nle-NH2)BB6-14 binding to NCI-H1299 lung cancer cells that have been stably transfected with BRS-3 with IC50 values of 4.8 μM. ML-18 exhibits a reduced affinity for binding the GRPR and NMBR, with IC50 values exceeding 100 μM and 16 μM, respectively. ML-18 at 16 μM reversibly prevents 10 nM BA1 from increasing cytosolic Ca2+ in lung cancer cells that have been loaded with FURA2-AM. ML-18 at 16 μM prevents 100 nM BA1 from causing EGFR and ERK tyrosine phosphorylation in lung cancer cells. It prevents lung cancer cells from proliferating[1].
Enzyme Assay
The cells are cultured in SIT buffer supplemented with varying concentrations of unlabelled competitor (ML-18), 0.25% bovine serum albumin, 250 μg/mL bacitracin, and 1253I-BA1 (100,000 cpm). Following a 30-minute incubation period at 37°C, free 1253I-BA1 is eliminated by three rounds of buffer washing, and the cells containing bound 1253I-BA1 are dissolved in 0.2 N NaOH and counted using a gamma counter. For every competitor without a label, the IC50 is computed[1].
Cell Assay
The MTT assay is used to determine cell viability. After transfecting NCI-H727 or NCI-H1299 cells with BRS-3, ML-18 (0, 4.8, 16, 48 μM) or gefitinib is added. 15 μL of 0.1% MTT solution was added after two days. 150 μL of DMSO is added after 4 hours. The optical density at 570 nm is calculated after 16 hours[1].

*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.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:

  • 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
