Product Description

RO4929097 (also called RO-4929097; RO04929097; R-4733) is a novel, potent and orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of γ-secretase (gamma secretase-GS) that may have antitumor properties. In a cell-free experiment, it suppresses γ-secretase with an IC50 of 4 nM. Additionally, it suppresses the cellular processing of Aβ40 and Notch, which are substrates for γ-secretase, with EC50s of 14 nM and 5 nM, respectively. By binding to GS, RO4929097 prevents Notch receptor activation, which may stop the growth of tumor cells. RO4929097 may be used to treat cancer because it has been shown that overexpression of the Notch signaling pathway is associated with an increase in the growth of tumor cells. Single-pass transmembrane proteins, like Notch receptors, are cleaved at residues within their transmembrane domains by the multi-subunit protease complex known as the integral membrane protein GS.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
γ secretase (IC50 = 4 nM); Notch (IC50 = 5 nM); Aβ40 (IC50 = 14 nM)
ln Vitro
RO4929097 inhibits the synthesis of ICN, which lowers the expression of Hes1, the downstream Notch target, and causes A549 cells to have a less altered morphology. In human tumor-derived cells, RO4929097 inhibits Notch processing[1]. Breast cancer cells are inhibited by RO4929097 (1 µM) to a 20% extent for SUM149 cells and 10% for SUM190 cells. The invasiveness of SUM149 cells is not significantly affected by RO4929097. Both cell lines experience a significant reduction in colony formation when exposed to RO4929097, with SUM149 cells showing the greatest effect[2]. In vitro, RO4929097 suppresses primary melanoma cell proliferation, anchorage independent growth, and sphere formation[3].
ln Vivo
RO4929097 (3-60 mg/kg, p.o.) has a substantial inhibitory effect on tumor growth in nude mice with A549 NSCLC xenografts when compared to animals receiving vehicle treatment. Initially, treatment causes established A549 tumors to regress when mice are given 60 mg/kg RO4929097 twice daily according to the 7+/14-schedule[1]. Primary melanoma cell growth is inhibited in vivo by RO4929097. After mice were injected with 104 cells in vivo, it was found that the RO4929097-treated cells significantly delayed the formation of tumors compared to the vehicle-treated ones. The percentage of secondary tumors formed by RO4929097-treated cells is lower, and the secondary tumors formed by RO4929097-treated cells are smaller[3].
Enzyme Assay
The Aβ peptides are quantified by ECL assays employing an Origen 1.5 Analyzer and a range of anti-Aβ antibodies following the use of RO4929097. The α-secretase cleavage site is immediately distal to an epitope in the Aβ peptide (within amino acids 18–21) that is bound by the 4G8 murine mAb. The C terminus, which is exposed following γ-secretase-mediated cleavage to produce amino acid 40 of the Aβ40 peptide, is bound by the G2–10 murine mAb. The C terminus of the Aβ42 peptide, which is generated by γ-secretase-mediated cleavage to produce amino acid 42, is bound by the rabbit antibody FCA3542. Biotin-LC-sulfo-N-hydroxysuccinimide-ester is used to biotinylate the 4G8 mAb. Using TAG-N-hydroxysuccinimide ester, the G2–10 and FCA3542 antibodies are ruthenylated. Biotinylated 4G8 and ruthenylated G2–10 are used to detect Aβ(x–40). Biotinylated 4G8 and ruthenylated FCA3542 are used to detect Aβ(x-42).
Cell Assay
At a density of 5 × 104 cells, the IBC cell lines SUM149 and SUM190 are seeded. 0.1 nM to 10 μM of RO4929097 are administered as a vehicle or escalating doses the following day. Trypsinization of the cells is done after 72 hours, and a hemocytometer is used to count the viable cells..
Animal Protocol
Mice: Mice treated with RO4929097 are given oral doses of suspensions ranging from 3 to 60 mg/kg RO4929097 in accordance with the prescribed regimens. RO4929097 is dosed at 60 mg/kg/d every other week for 4 weeks (7+/7- × 2 cycles) in the Calu-6 xenograft model. RO4929097 is dosed once daily at 10 mg/kg for 21 days for all other xenograft models. One-way ANOVA, the post hoc Bonferroni t test, and the Mann-Whitney rank-sum test are used to determine statistical analysis. When P ≤ 0.05, differences between groups are deemed significant. A549 tumors from both the vehicle-treated and specific RO4929097-treated groups are taken, processed, and embedded in paraffin for an overnight fix. They are then sectioned at 5 μM and stained with H&E for histopathology evaluation. The histology images were obtained with an Olympus BX51 microscope (×40 objective) mounted on a Nikon DS-Fi1 equipped with the NIS-Elements F2.20 software. Three A549 tumours are flash-frozen for Western blot analysis, one for each of the two groups (7 (60 mg/kg) or 21 days (3 and 30 mg/kg). H-200 antibody is used at a dilution of 1:1,000 to detect collagen type V, and at a dilution of 1:5,000 to detect MFAP5.
