Product Description

Sofosbuvir (also known as PSI-7977, GS-7977; PSI7977; GS7977; Vosevi; Hepcinat; Hepcvir; Resof; Sovaldi and Virunon), a blockbuster anti-HCV drug, is an HCV NS5B polymerase inhibitor that has been approved for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections. Sofosbuvir acts by blocking the hepatitis C virus from using RNA polymerase to replicate its RNA. It is a part of the first approved treatment regimen for chronic Hepatitis C that is all oral and devoid of interferon. The FDA approved sofosbuvir and ribavirin (RBV) in 2013 for treatment-naive patients with HCV genotypes 1 and 4. Additionally, patients with genotypes 2 and 3 were approved for triple therapy using injected pegylated interferon (pegIFN) and RBV.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
HCV ( EC50 = 92±5 nM )
ln Vitro

PSI-7977, an HCV NS5B polymerase inhibitor, exhibits a more potent inhibitory activity against HCV RNA replication than PSI-7976, as evidenced by its EC50 of 92 nM versus 1.07 μM and EC90 of 0.29 μM versus 2.99 μM. This is consistent with the finding that clone A cells incubated with PSI-7977 produce a higher concentration of PSI-7409 than clone A cells incubated with PSI-7976. By virtue of its 18–30 fold increase in potency over PSI–7976, PSI–7977 is a more effective substrate for CatA to form PSI–352707. However, unlike GS-7976, PSI-7977's CES1-mediated hydrolysis does not proceed in a time-dependent fashion.[1] Resistance to PSI-7977 can be conferred by the S282T NS5B polymerase mutation, but not by the S96T mutation. The EC90 value increases from 0.42 μM to 7.8 μM. Even at concentrations as high as 100 μM, PSI-7977 shows no cytotoxicity against Huh7, HepG2, BxPC3, and CEM cells in an 8-day cytotoxicity assay. After 14 days of treatment with PSI-7977, the inhibition of mtDNA and rDNA in HepG2 cells was shown to have an IC90 of 72.1 μM and 68.6 μM, respectively. [/2] With regard to genotype (GT) 1a, 1b, and 2a (strain JFH-1) replicons as well as chimeric replicons containing GT 2a (strain J6), 2b, and 3a NS5B polymerase, PSI-7977 demonstrates strong activity. Additional amino acid changes, such as T179A, M289L, I293L, M434T, and H479P, are chosen both before and after the emergence of S282T, which is necessary to confer resistance to PSI-7977, according to sequence analysis of the JFH-1 NS5B region.[3]

ln Vivo
The average plasma ALT levels in the 440- and 44-mg/kg/d treatment groups of mice with humanized livers were below the upper limit of normal and did not differ statistically from those in the vehicle-treated humanized liver mice. Additionally, neither the control mice nor the mice with humanized livers that received either dose of PSI-7977 had elevated plasma lactate levels.
Cell Assay
In T75 flasks, clone A cells are deposited at a density of approximately 5×106 cells/flask using Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 100 IU/mL Penicillin, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin. In a similar manner, T75 flasks are seeded with approximately 5×106 human primary hepatocytes per flask using cell plating medium. Cells are incubated with 50 μM PSI-7851, PSI-7976, or Sofosbuvir (PSI-7977) in fresh medium for clone A cells or in cell maintenance medium for primary hepatocytes for up to 24 hours at 37°C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere after being left to attach overnight. When using radiolabeled PSI-7851 in the study, the same protocols are followed, with the exception that 1×106 cells are seeded into each well of a 6-well plate, and the cells are then incubated with 5 μM [3H]PSI-7851. The medium is taken out at predetermined intervals, and the cell layer is cleaned using cold phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Following trypsinization, cells are tallied and centrifuged for five minutes at 1,200 rpm. The cell pellets are left overnight at −20°C after being suspended in 1 mL of cold 60% methanol. After centrifuging the samples for five minutes at 14,000 rpm, the supernatants are gathered, dried with a SpeedVac concentrator, and kept at -20°C until high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. After suspending residues in 100 μL of water, 50 μL aliquots are injected into an HPLC.

  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • 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
