Product Description
BBC0403 is a selective BRD2 inhibitor with Kd of 7.64 μM and 41.37 μM for BRD2 (BD2) and BRD2 (BD1), respectively. BBC0403 has higher selectivity for BRD2 than BRD3 and BRD4. BBC0403 has potential for osteoarthritis (OA) research.
BBC0403 is a selective inhibitor of the bromodomain‑containing protein BRD2. It demonstrates greater binding specificity for BRD2 compared to BRD3 and BRD4, making it a promising chemical probe for research on osteoarthritis (OA) and other diseases where BRD2 plays a pathogenic role.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
BRD2 (BD2) 7.64 μM (Kd) BRD2 (BD1) 41.37 μM (Kd)
BRD2 (bromodomain‑containing protein 2). BBC0403 binds to the second bromodomain (BD2) of BRD2 with higher affinity than to the first bromodomain (BD1).
ln Vitro
BBC0403 (5μM, 10μM and 20μM, 12 hours) reduces the expression of catabolic factors, the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and the degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM). BBC0403 prevents OA by inhibiting NF-κB and MAPK signaling[1].
In cell‑free binding assays, BBC0403 binds to BRD2 with Kd values of 7.64 uM for BRD2 (BD2) and 41.37 uM for BRD2 (BD1). The compound exhibits higher binding specificity for BRD2 compared to BRD3 and BRD4. In vitro (5‑20 uM, 12 hours), BBC0403 reduces the expression of catabolic factors, the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and the degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM).
ln Vivo
BBC0403 (5-10 μg/kg; intra-articular injection; once a week; 6 weeks) prevents cartilage degradation in OA mice [1].
Enzyme Assay
A general cell‑free protocol for BRD2 binding affinity uses a fluorescence polarization (FP) assay. Recombinant BRD2(BD2) protein is incubated with a fluorescently labeled tetra‑acetylated histone H4 peptide (H4K5/8/12/16ac) in a buffer (50 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.01% Tween‑20, 1 mM DTT). Various concentrations of BBC0403 are added, and the mixture is incubated for 30‑60 minutes at room temperature. The change in fluorescence polarization is measured, and the IC₅0 is calculated. Kd is then derived using the Cheng‑Prusoff equation.
Cell Assay
A general cellular protocol for BRD2 inhibitors in OA research: Isolate primary human chondrocytes or use chondrocyte cell lines. Treat cells with BBC0403 at concentrations of 5, 10, and 20 uM for 12 hours. Stimulate the cells with inflammatory cytokines such as IL‑1beta or TNF‑alpha (e.g., 10 ng/mL) to induce catabolic factor expression. Measure the expression of catabolic factors (MMP‑13, ADAMTS‑4, ADAMTS‑5) by qRT‑PCR and PGE2 production by ELISA. Assess ECM degradation by analyzing glycosaminoglycan release into the culture medium.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models:Male C57BL/6 mice (12 weeks old; 18-20 g) bearing osteoarthritis (OA)[1]
Doses: 5 μg/kg, 10 μg/kg
Route of Administration: Intra-articular (i.a.) injection; once per week; 6 weeks
Experimental Results: Prevented OA cartilage degradation in mice.
A general animal protocol for BRD2 inhibitors: Use a mouse model of osteoarthritis induced by destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM) surgery. Administer BBC0403 intra‑articularly or systemically via oral gavage at doses such as 10‑50 mg/kg daily for 4‑8 weeks. Evaluate OA severity by histological scoring (OARSI score) of joint sections stained with Safranin‑O/fast green. Assess synovial inflammation by measuring inflammatory cytokine levels. Measure serum and joint PGE2 levels by ELISA.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : 25 mg/mL (65.37 mM; with sonication (<60°C))
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.54 mM)(Saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution, add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix well; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above system and mix well; then add 450 μL saline to make it 1 mL.
*Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.54 mM)(saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution, add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL corn oil and mix well. (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

*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.
