Product Description

Tyrphostin AG 879 (AG-879), a tyrphostin compound, is novel multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor with potential antitumor activity. It exhibits 100- and 500-fold higher selectivity against ErbB2 over PDGFR and EGFR, and potently inhibits HER2/ErbB2 with an IC50 of 1 μM.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
HER2-Neu (IC50 = 1.0 μM); Trk (IC50 = 10 μM)
ln Vitro

AG879 suppresses the growth of FET6αS26X cells in a concentration-dependent manner.[1] NIH 3T3 cells' malignant transformation brought on by RAS is suppressed and PAK1 activation is blocked by AG879 (10 nM). In NIH 3T3 fibroblasts transformed with v-Ha-RAS, AG879 (<1 μM) inhibits the Tyr-phosphorylation of ERK and its interaction with PAK1. [2] By preventing DNA synthesis and mitosis, AG 879 dose-dependently lowers the number of MCF-7 cells and has a noticeable impact as early as 0.4 mM. In MCF-7 cells, activation of ERK-1/2 is inhibited by AG 879 (<20 μM). The expression of HER-2 and RAF-1, two Hsp90 client proteins, is reduced by AG 879 (5 μM). [3] In cell lines from human leiomyosarcoma (HTB-114, HTB-115, HTB-88), rhabdomyosarcoma (HTB-82, TE-671), prostatic adenocarcinoma (PC-3), acute promyelocytic leukemia (HL-60), and histiocytic lymphoma (U-937), AG879(20 μM) significantly reduces proliferation with a variable increase in apoptosis. [4]

ln Vivo
AG879 (2 mg) reduces the growth of cancer in athymic NOD/SCID mice grafted with HTB-114 or HL-60.[4] Treatment with AG 879 (20 mg/kg) significantly reduces the size of growing sarcomas in nude mice carrying v-Ha-RAS transformed NIH 3T3 cells and keeps 50% of mice completely free of RAS-induced sarcomas.[5]
Enzyme Assay
Tyrosine kinase inhibitor tyrphostinAG879 inhibits phosphorylation of TrKA but not TrKB or TrKC. Also an ErbB2 kinase inhibitor, it is at least 500 times more selective against ErbB2 (IC50 = 1 μmol/L) than it is against EGFR (IC50 >500 μmol/L).
Cell Assay
Cells are cultured in 96-well plates with 100 μL of medium in each well. Each well receives ten microliters of MTT solution (5 mg/ml in PBS), and the incubation process is carried out for four hours at 37 °C. Next, add 100 μL of 10% SDS in 0.01 M HCl. Using a reference filter of 690 nm, absorption is measured at 550 nm in an ELISA reader following an overnight incubation at 37°C.
Animal Protocol
nude mice carrying v-Ha-RAS transformed NIH 3T3 cells
20 mg/kg
Intraperitoneally administrated on days 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, 14, and 17.

*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.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • 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
