The compound targets the ERG (ETS-related gene) protein and the RIOK2 (RIO kinase 2) protein. It is reported as a dual inhibitor, with IC50 values of 0.17 uM for ERG and 0.13 uM for RIOK2 in VCaP cells.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In VCaP cells, ERGi-USU-6 mesylate exhibits potent growth-inhibitory activity (IC50 = 0.089-0.17 uM). It demonstrates selective antiproliferative activity against ERG-positive prostate cancer cell lines.
|
| ln Vivo |
Cellular assays in VCaP cells show the compound's growth-inhibitory effects, indicating strong antiproliferative and anticancer activity. It has not been extensively profiled in standard animal efficacy studies.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Not specified for this compound. Standard target engagement assays for kinase targets like RIOK2 can employ radioligand binding or TR-FRET (Time-Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer) methods.
|
| Cell Assay |
The standard assay used to evaluate ERGi-USU-6 mesylate is a cell viability assay. VCaP cells are treated with the compound for 120 hours, and inhibition of cell growth is assessed using a Cell Glow ATPase assay.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

Injection Formulation 4: DMSO : 20% SBE-β-CD in saline = 10 : 90 [i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL (20% SBE-β-CD in saline)] Oral Formulations
Oral Formulation 1: Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na (carboxymethylcellulose sodium) Oral Formulation 2: Suspend in 0.5% Carboxymethyl cellulose Example: Take the Oral Formulation 1 (Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na) as an example, if 100 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can first prepare 0.5% CMC Na solution by measuring 0.5 g CMC Na and dissolve it in 100 mL ddH2O to obtain a clear solution; then add 250 mg of the product to 100 mL 0.5% CMC Na solution, to make the suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*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.
