Product Description

Rhosin (G04; G-04) HCl, the hydrochloride salt of Rhosin, is a novel and potent Rho GTPase inhibitor. It inhibits WT RhoA with an affinity ~0.4 uM. Rho GTPases have been implicated in diverse cellular functions and are potential therapeutic targets.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Mammospheres produced from MCF7 cells exhibit dose-dependent reductions in RhoA and p-MLC1 activity, with an EC50 of ~30-50 μM. Additionally, mammosphere size and number in MCF7 cells are reduced [1].
ln Vivo
The therapy of Russell (40 mg/kg; i.p.) inhibits social avoidance brought on by stress related to social defeat. In C57Bl6/J (Jackson) mice, Russell also prevents the sucrose preference deficit caused by failure [3]. ?Stress-induced social avoidance is lessened when Russell (30 μM; bilateral intranuclear accumbens (NAc) infusion) is used. In medium spiny neurons with the NAc dopamine 1 receptor, rosin inhibits the hyperexcitability brought on by stress (D1-MSN). Russell stops the excitatory transmission on NAc D1-MSNs from decreasing. In mice that fail, rosin increases spine density [3].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: D1-GFP or D2-GFP hemizygous mice on C57BL/6J background [3]
Doses: 40 mg/kg
Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection
Experimental Results: Russell was administered systemically 15 minutes before failure to block RhoA activation. While failure Dramatically diminished the amount of time experimental mice spent interacting with new mice, giving Russell suppressed this effect without affecting motor behavior.

  • 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

Biological Data
  • Rhosin inhibits RhoA activity and suppresses proliferation of breast cancer cells.(A) Rhosin inhibits RhoA activity in MCF7 cells. MCF7 cells were treated with G04 or Analog3 of indicated concentrations for 24 hours in a serum-free media. Cells were subsequently stimulated with 10% fetal bovine serum for 15 min and were subjected to Rhotekin effector domain pull-down assays, and the activities of RhoA were determined. Blotting of the respective total-cell lysates was carried out in parallel. Results shown are representative of three independent experiments. (B) Rhosin inhibits MCF7 cell growth. MCF7 cells were plated at 1.5 ×104 /24 well in the presence of G04. Cell numbers were determined at the indicated times. (C) Rhosin inhibits RhoA and its downstream signaling activities in MCF7-derived mammospheres. MCF-7 cells were dissociated to single cells with trypsin and cultured for 10 days at the density of 2×104/mL in suspension. The spheres were collected and subjected to GST-Rhotekin effector domain pull-down assays, and the activities of RhoA were examined. Blotting of the respective total cell lysates was carried out in parallel. Relative amounts of GTP-bound form of RhoA were quantified by densitometry measurements and normalized to those of the untreated cells. Lower panel: Western blots are p-MLC of MCF7-derived spheres treated with G04 at indicated concentrations.[1].Rational design of small molecule inhibitors targeting RhoA subfamily Rho GTPases. Chem Biol. 2012 Jun 22;19(6):699-710.
  • Rhosin suppresses the migration and invasion of breast cancer cells.(A) Rhosin inhibits MCF7 cell migration. MCF7 cells were subjected migration assays in the presence of G04. The percentages of the cells that migrated towards a 10% FBS gradient for 16 hours in a transwell migration chamber were calculated by dividing the number of migrated cells into the number of input equivalents plated on the transwell. (B) Rhosin inhibits MCF7 cells invasion. The invasive activities were assayed in a Matrigel-coated transwell. The MCF7 cells that succeeded in invasion into the Matrigel were stained with 5% Giemsa solution for visualization and quantification 16 hours after plating in the presence of G04 of the indicated concentrations. (C-D) Rhosin supresses HME-RhoC cells invasion activity via inhibiting the RhoC activity. Human mammary epithelial (HME) cells and RhoC expressing HME cells were grown in Ham’s F-12 medium supplemented with 5% FBS, insulin, hydrocortisone, epidermal growth factor, and cholera toxin.

  • Rhosin induces neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells in synergy with NGF.(A-B) PC12 cells were treated with 30 μM G04 and 50 ng/mL NGF for 72 hours. Photos were taken at indicated time points (A) when relative neurite lengths per cell were measured (B). At least 100 cells were chosen randomly for the measurement. Total neurite output was determined by dividing the combined length of all neurites by the number of neurite-bearing cells. (C) PC12 cells were treated with G04 of indicated concentrations for 24 hours in serum-free media. Cells were subsequently stimulated with 5% fetal calf serum and 10% horse serum for 15 min and were subjected to effector domain pull-down assays, and the activity of RhoA was examined by GST-Rhoteckin pulldown. Relative amounts of RhoA-GTP were quantified by densitometry measurements and normalized to those of unstimulated cells.[1].Rational design of small molecule inhibitors targeting RhoA subfamily Rho GTPases.
