Product Description
WCY-8-67 TFA is a selective USP5 inhibitor with oral activity and an IC50 value of 1.33 μM. WCY-8-67 induces apoptosis in vitro and inhibits the JAK/STAT3 and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways. WCY-8-67 TFA inhibits the proliferation of AE-positive AML cells, inducing G1 phase arrest and differentiation. WCY-8-67 TFA has shown potent anti-leukemic efficacy in mice. WCY-8-67 TFA may be used in acute myeloid leukemia research.
WCY-8-67 TFA is an orally bioavailable and selective inhibitor of ubiquitin-specific protease 5 (USP5), with an IC50 of 1.33 uM. It targets the ubiquitin-associated domain 2 (UBA2) region, causing USP5 dysfunction. It induces apoptosis and inhibits the JAK/STAT3 and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways. It is used in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) research.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
WCY-8-67 TFA selectively binds to the UBA2 domain of USP5. Inhibition of USP5 leads to accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins, including AML1-ETO, promoting their degradation via the proteasome. This disrupts the JAK/STAT3 and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways, leading to cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in AML cells.
ln Vitro
In vitro, WCY-8-67 TFA (0.5-2 uM) suppresses proliferation of AE-positive AML cells, induces G1 phase cell cycle arrest, and promotes cell differentiation. It induces apoptosis and inhibits JAK/STAT3 and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways. IC50 values: USP5 inhibition at 1.33 uM. It shows potent anti-leukemic activity in cell lines and primary patient-derived AML cells.
ln Vivo
In vivo, WCY-8-67 TFA exhibits excellent oral bioavailability and tolerability in animal models. It effectively inhibits the growth of AML cells, including patient-derived xenografts (PDX). When combined with 5-azacytidine (5-Aza), it improves therapeutic effects in PDX models. It significantly reduces AML tumor burden without apparent toxicity at effective doses.
Enzyme Assay
Recombinant USP5 enzyme is incubated with a ubiquitin-AMC substrate in assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 0.5 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT, 0.01% Tween 20) at 25-37degC. WCY-8-67 TFA is added at varying concentrations (0.01-50 uM) and pre-incubated for 15-30 minutes. The reaction is initiated by substrate addition, and fluorescence (Ex/Em: 380/460 nm) is monitored over 60 minutes. IC50 is calculated as 1.33 uM.
Cell Assay
AE-positive AML cells (e.g., Kasumi-1, SKNO-1) are cultured in RPMI-1640 medium with 10-20% FBS and 1% penicillin-streptomycin at 37degC, 5% CO2. Cells are treated with WCY-8-67 TFA (0.5-5 uM) for 24-72 hours. Cell proliferation is measured by CCK-8 or MTT assays. Apoptosis is assessed by Annexin V/PI staining via flow cytometry. Cell cycle distribution is analyzed by PI staining.
Animal Protocol
Immunodeficient mice (e.g., NSG or NCG) are engrafted with AE-positive AML cell lines or patient-derived xenograft (PDX) cells via tail vein injection. Mice are randomized into treatment groups (n=5-8 per group) after engraftment confirmation. WCY-8-67 TFA is administered orally at 10-50 mg/kg daily for 14-28 days. Tumor burden is monitored by bioluminescence imaging or flow cytometry of human CD45+ cells in peripheral blood and bone marrow. PDX models are treated with WCY-8-67 TFA alone or in combination with 5-azacytidine.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
WCY-8-67 TFA exhibits excellent oral bioavailability (F% >70% in rodents). After oral administration (e.g., 10-50 mg/kg), maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) is achieved within 0.5-2 hours. The elimination half-life (t1/2) ranges from 4-8 hours. It demonstrates good plasma stability and low plasma protein binding (~30-50%).
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
At therapeutic doses (10-30 mg/kg daily for up to 28 days), no significant toxicity is observed in animal models. Body weight, complete blood counts, serum chemistry (ALT, AST, BUN, creatinine), and histopathology of major organs (liver, kidney, heart, lung) show no significant abnormalities compared to vehicle controls. Higher doses (≥100 mg/kg) may cause mild hepatotoxicity.

Additional Infomation
WCY-8-67 TFA induces USP5 inhibition, leading to ubiquitin-mediated degradation of the AML1-ETO fusion protein, a driver of t(8;21) AML. It induces G1 phase cell cycle arrest and promotes differentiation of leukemic cells. The JAK/STAT3 and PI3K/AKT pathways are suppressed. No clinical trials have been initiated; it is currently in preclinical research.
