Product Description

Vatalanib ((PTK787 or ZK 222584, cpg-79787) is a novel, potent and orally bioavailable inhibitor of VEGFR2/KDR with IC50 of 37 nM in a cell-free assay, it is less potent against VEGFR1/Flt-1, and is 18-fold against VEGFR3/Flt-4. It is an analog of anilinophthalazine that may have antitumor properties. Vatalanib binds to VEGFR 1 and 2's protein kinase domain, inhibiting it. Additionally, this substance binds to and inhibits c-Kit, c-Fms, and the PDGF receptor, among other related receptor tyrosine kinases.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
VEGFR2/KDR (IC50 = 37 nM); VEGFR1/FLT1 (IC50 = 77 nM); VEGFR2/Flk1 (IC50 = 270 nM); PDGFRβ (IC50 = 580 nM); VEGFR3/FLT4 (IC50 = 660 nM)
ln Vitro
Vatalanib also inhibits PDGFRβ, Flk, and c-Kit with IC50 values of 580 nM, 730 nM, and 270 nM, respectively. At an IC50 of 7.1 nM, vatalanib inhibits the thymidine incorporation that VEGF induces in HUVECs. It also suppresses VEGF-induced migration and survival of endothelial cells in the same dose range in a dose-dependent manner, without having an adverse effect on cells that do not express VEGF receptors[1]. According to a new study, vatalanib increases the levels of the protein Bax and decreases Bcl-xL and Bcl-2, which significantly inhibits the growth of hepatocellular carcinoma cells and enhances the IFN/5-FU-induced apoptosis[2].
ln Vivo
Vatalanib results in dose-dependent suppression of the angiogenic response to VEGF and PDGF following a single oral dosage (25–100 mg/kg) in two models: one using growth factor implants, the other using tumor cell-driven angiogenesis. Vatalanib also inhibits the growth and metastases of multiple human carcinomas in nude mice within the same dose range, while having no discernible effect on bone marrow leukocytes or circulating blood cells[1].
Enzyme Assay
Every GST-fused kinase is cultured in buffer conditions that are optimized. ATP in a 30 μL total volume for 10 minutes at room temperature, either with or without the test drug vatalanib. To stop the reaction, add 10 μL of 250 mM EDTA[1].
Cell Assay
In 96-well plates coated with 1.5% gelatin, subconfluent HUVECs are seeded. A constant concentration of either VEGF (50 ng/mL), bFGF (0.5 ng/mL), or FCS (5%), with or without vatalanib, is added to the basal medium after 24 hours, replacing the growth medium. Additionally included as a control are wells devoid of growth factor. Cells are incubated for a further 24 hours after the addition of the BrdUrd labeling solution, and then they are fixed, blocked, and have peroxidase-labeled anti-BrdUrd antibody added. The 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine substrate is then used to detect the bound antibody[1].
Animal Protocol
On the dorsal flank of C57/C6 mice, a 0.5 mL porous Teflon chamber containing 0.8% w/v agar, 0.2% heparin (20 units/mL), growth factors (3 g/mL human VEGF, 2 g/mL human PDGF), or neither, is implanted s.c. Beginning one day prior to chamber implantation and continuing for five days thereafter, the mice are treated with either vehicle (water) or Vatalanib (12.5, 25 or 50 mg/kg dihydrochloride p.o. once daily). The treatment concludes with the mice's death and the removal of the chambers. Measurements of the tissue's hemoglobin content are used to determine the amount of blood present after the vascularized tissue surrounding the chamber is carefully removed and weighed[1].

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:

  • 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)
